I just bought my ticket Lord, I hope the bus ain't late
I'll have a cup of coffee and a sandwich from the microwave

Now I'm gonna see my baby if it's the last thing I ever do
I got this sittin' in the station sick and tired of waitin'
Continental trailways blues

Well rollin' out for Houston, man we're finally rollin' now
Try to get some sleep, listen to that highway sound
I guess we must have stopped in every single little town

Well I've bought myself a copy of the Natchez Mississippi news
With the just pulled out of Lake Charles rollin' into sulphur
Continental trailways blues

Ohh, welcome now

Now we're rollin' into Houston, don't the damn city lights look fine?
Headed for the pay phone, hangin' onto my last dime
Well, she says she's got a new man, son, it's been a long, long time

She laid standin' by the highway with the rain runnin' through my shoes
With the sittin' by the road side wishin' I was inside
Continental trailways blues

I got the wishin' I was downtown waitin' on a Greyhound
Continental trailways blues

I just bought my ticket Lord, I hope the bus ain't late
I'll have a cup of coffee and a sandwich from the microwave
