Well sittin' in the depot long before the break of day. 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. 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 and listen to that highway sound. I guess we must have stopped in every single little town. Now 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. Now we're rollin' into Houston don't them 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. Now I was 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
