Well, sittin� in the depot long before the break of day
I just bought my ticket, lord I hope the bus ain抰 late
I抣l have a cup of coffee and a sandwich from the microwave
Now I抦 gonna see my baby if it抯 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抮e 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抳e 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抮e rollin� into houston, don抰 them city lights look fine
Headed for the pay phone, hangin� onto my last dime
Well, she says she抯 got a new man, son, it抯 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
