Jonathan Richman - You're Crazy for Taking the Bus lyrics
[Jonathan Richman - You're Crazy for Taking the Bus lyrics]
Well, a welfare gal and her drunk galoot
And nobody wearing a three piece suit
You meet folks this way you
Just don't see while flying
So, you take the plane but I'll
Take the bus this time
Well, a welfare gal and her drunken cuss
And Pepsi cans rolling round the bus
Add newspapers and grit and you've got slime
So you take the plane but I'll
Take the bus this time
Where it's Salt Lake City, everybody off
Salt Lake City, everybody off
With Elko, Welles and Reno down the line
So you take the plane but I'll
Take the bus this time
"But Jonathan
You're crazy for taking the bus"
"Well, I'm crazy, so what's the fuss?"
"Two whole days on that stinking bus?"
"Yes, and I sleep fine
So you take the plane
I'll take the bus this time"
Go Donnie, tell 'em
Look at it this way they don't want my name
And I don't want their baggage claim
My guitar is seated right where I am
So you take the plane but I'll
Take the bus this time
Well, you got the old fat guy
In his old tank top the Wendover casino stop
And then of course Winnemucca
And Welles and Anaheim
So you take the plane but I'll
Take the bus this time
And it's Salt Lake City, everybody off
Salt Lake City, everybody off
With Elko, Welles and Reno down the line
So you take the plane
I'll take the bus this time
"But Jonathan
You're crazy for taking the bus"
"Well, I'm crazy, so what's the fuss?"
"Two whole days on that stinking bus?"
"Yes, and I sleep fine
So you take the plane
I'll take the bus this time"
And nobody wearing a three piece suit
You meet folks this way you
Just don't see while flying
So, you take the plane but I'll
Take the bus this time
Well, a welfare gal and her drunken cuss
And Pepsi cans rolling round the bus
Add newspapers and grit and you've got slime
So you take the plane but I'll
Take the bus this time
Where it's Salt Lake City, everybody off
Salt Lake City, everybody off
With Elko, Welles and Reno down the line
So you take the plane but I'll
Take the bus this time
"But Jonathan
You're crazy for taking the bus"
"Well, I'm crazy, so what's the fuss?"
"Two whole days on that stinking bus?"
"Yes, and I sleep fine
So you take the plane
I'll take the bus this time"
Go Donnie, tell 'em
Look at it this way they don't want my name
And I don't want their baggage claim
My guitar is seated right where I am
So you take the plane but I'll
Take the bus this time
Well, you got the old fat guy
In his old tank top the Wendover casino stop
And then of course Winnemucca
And Welles and Anaheim
So you take the plane but I'll
Take the bus this time
And it's Salt Lake City, everybody off
Salt Lake City, everybody off
With Elko, Welles and Reno down the line
So you take the plane
I'll take the bus this time
"But Jonathan
You're crazy for taking the bus"
"Well, I'm crazy, so what's the fuss?"
"Two whole days on that stinking bus?"
"Yes, and I sleep fine
So you take the plane
I'll take the bus this time"
