A D A

Well, I’m sittin’ in the depot long before the break of day

D A

I just bought my ticket, lord I hope the bus ain’t late

E A

I’ll have a cup of coffee and a sandwich from the microwave

D A

Now I’m gonna see my baby if it’s the last thing I ever do

A

Got this sittin’ in the station sick and tired of waitin’

E A

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

Solo

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

She left me 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
