Bible And A Bus Ticket Home Lyrics

Mama's tears fell so easy, daddy's handshake was strong

And I climed aboard that Greyhound

18, glad to be gone

Took a rented room on Broadway and as I unpacked everything I owned

I found a note my mama left me

With a Bible and a Bus ticket home

chorus

It said one will get you where you're going

When you haven't got a prayer

And one can bring you back son

If your dreams ain't waiting there

You're out on you're own now

We won't be there to fall back on

But you know we're never farther

Then a bible and a bus ticket home

The years have come and gone and taken

The only things in life I ever counted on

But I'm going back tomorrow

To lay flowers on their stones

I can almost hear my mama calling

Saying son come back where you belong

You've got all you need to get here

A bible and a bus ticket home

chorus
