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 submitted by Lisa
