    Talking Just for Fun: Songs that Mention Greyhound Buses in their Lyrics

    I was listening to the radio the other day and I noticed just how many songs mention Greyhound buses (or even in some case bus stations) in their lyrics.

    What's the deal with that?

    Seriously.

    (Oops, sorry wrong thread.)

    But just for fun. Let's see how many song lyrics that mention Greyhounds we can post here.

    I'll start:

    "Under the Boardwalk" by The Drifters

    They say that I won't last too long on Broadway
    I'll catch a Greyhound bus for home they all say
    I'm just here to make people laugh. And to confuse people. Oh, and to irritate people.

    "New York State of Mind" by Billy Joel

    But I'm taking a Greyhound
    On the Hudson River Line
    I'm in a New York state of mind
    I'm just here to make people laugh. And to confuse people. Oh, and to irritate people.

    Cool. Post some!

    I've got a few more in mind already, but I'm waiting to see what everyone finds.

    No one got this one yet?

    "Ramblin' Man" by The Allman Brothers

    "I was born in the back set of a Greyhound bus
    Rollin' down highway 41"


    BTW, Winfy you're right! I had no idea there were THAT many songs!

    "America" by Simon & Garfunkel

    "Kathy," I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh
    "Michigan seems like a dream to me now"
    It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw
    I've gone to look for America

    I went to see this band play called Rooster when visiting the French Quarter in New Orleans a couple of years ago. One of the songs was entitled "The Mirror". One of the verses goes something like this: "I wish you were the Greyhound Bus, baby. I'd like to ride you up and down the road. Yeah I wish you were the Greyhound bus, baby.. I'd like to ride your sexy body up and down the road..yeah you know if you were the Greyhound bus baby, you can carry my big old load". Enjoyed the music while havin some brews.

    Uploaded the song.
