Mamma's tears fell so easy Daddy's handshake was strong Then I climbed aboard that greyhound Eighteen and glad to be gone
Took a rented room on Broadway And as I unpacked everything I owed I found a note my mamma left me With a Bible and a bus ticket home
It said, 'One will get you where you're going When you haven't got a prayer And one will bring you back son If your dreams ain't waiting there'
'You're out on your own now We won't be there to fall back on But you know we're never farther Than 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 stone
I can almost hear my mamma calling Saying, 'Son come back where you belong You've got all you need to get here A Bible and a bus ticket home'
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 your own now We won't be there to fall back on But you know we're never farther Than a Bible and a bus ticket home Boy you know we're never farther Than a Bible and a bus ticket homeTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
