Thank God & Greyhound
I've made a small fortune and you squandered it all
You shamed me till I feel about one inch tall
But I thought I loved you and I hoped you would change
So I gritted my teeth and didn't complain
Now you come to me with a simple goodbye
You tell me you're leaving but you won't tell me why
We're here at the station and you're getting on
And all I can think of is thank God and Greyhound you're gone
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone
That load on my mind got lighter when you got on
That shiny old bus is a beautiful sight
With the black smoke a rolling up around the taillights
It may sound kind-a cruel but I've been silent too long
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone
I didn't know how much longer I could go on
Watching you take the respect out of me
Watching you make a total wreck out of me
That big diesel motor is a playing my song
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone
You shamed me till I feel about one inch tall
But I thought I loved you and I hoped you would change
So I gritted my teeth and didn't complain
Now you come to me with a simple goodbye
You tell me you're leaving but you won't tell me why
We're here at the station and you're getting on
And all I can think of is thank God and Greyhound you're gone
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone
That load on my mind got lighter when you got on
That shiny old bus is a beautiful sight
With the black smoke a rolling up around the taillights
It may sound kind-a cruel but I've been silent too long
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone
I didn't know how much longer I could go on
Watching you take the respect out of me
Watching you make a total wreck out of me
That big diesel motor is a playing my song
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone
Thank God and Greyhound you're gone
