I took this bus trip from Forth Worth, Texas to Wheeling, West Virginia and on the way home I jumped off in Cincinnati and bought a ticket to Nashville… Lots of stuff happen when you are on a bus and in bus stations for over 60 hours.
Here is the lyric…
BUS SONG
Got me a ride on Greyhound
Well, there ain’t no first class seatin’
On a Greyhound out of Wheeling, West Virginia
Mountain mama. Ohio River
Travel is cheap on Greyhound. That’s for sure.
I can’t afford to fly/Can’t afford to fly in
Got a seat here by the window
And an eye full of Ohio
Stop in Zanesville. Cigarette smell. Church up on the hill.
Discomfort is our fate, going the Greyhound way
Got my guitar and my lunch sack
In the overhead rack
It’s so crowded. No room to doubt it. So many people.
Ain’t gonna ride on Greyhound any more
Ain’t gonna ride on…
Ain’t gonna ride on Greyhound any more
Mile after mile after mile
Changed my bus in Cincinnati
Then it’s Bowling Green, Kentucky
Down to Nashville. It’s Johnny Cashville. It’s such a big deal
Windshield wipers waving
‘Cause the weather’s misbehaving
Stop in Memphis. Home of Elvis. Mississippi River
Pull into the depot and it’s Little Rock
Puke into a bucket. Wipe it with my sock
Well, there ain’t no first class seatin’
On a Greyhound out of Wheeling, West Virginia
On to Dallas. Then home to Fort Worth.

Why did you puke? Sorry, in a song fully of details I guess I want another detail.

You got me laughing out loud this morning James! Nothing like a good bus trip song to bring out the gritty side of life.

Bus is still the best way to get the full American tour. This has a nice Strawbs flavor.
