Get up in the mornin’, get on the bus
Get up in the mornin’ like the rest of us
Places to go, important people to meet
Better not get up or you might lose your seat
Bus rider.
Leave the house at six o’clock to be on time
Leave the wife and kids at home to make a dime
Grab your lunch pail check for mail in your slot
You won’t get your cheque if you don’t punch the clock
Bus rider.
Grab the evenin’ paper and sit down in your chair
Grab yourself a toupee, cause you’re losin’ your hair
Doesn’t matter what you do you’ve nothin’ to lose
I’m so awful goddamn glad I’m not in your shoes
Bus rider.
