Country Bus |
Country bus, north country bus |
Clumsy and cumbersome, rumbustious |
Country bus, north country bus |
Though you’re a slow coach you’re OK for us |
Though your cargo is confusion |
Sheepmen and cowgirls and chickens galore up the back |
No need to hurry: |
We couldn’t care less what the time may be |
And there’s no call to worry |
If you smell a bit, so do we |
Villainous, malodorous |
Country bus, north country bus |
Rollicking, frolicking, uproarious |
Country bus, North Country bus |
You’re rusty and you’re dusty but you’re OK for us |
Though your seats are rather Spartan |
We’ve got the springs in our backsides to ride out your bounce |
Though you may stumble |
After the dance on a Sat’day night |
Backseat lovers don’t grumble; |
They seem to manage alright |
Amorous, scandalous |
Country bus, north country bus |
Lusty and rustic and impetuous |
Country bus, North Country bus |
Bog-trotting bumpkin, you’re OK for us |
Though your progress is uncertain |
'specially at night when the public house closes its doors |
You tend to dodder |
Staggering home from The Bull Hotel |
We, we never bother |
'cause we’ve got the staggers as well |
Glorious, notorious |
Country bus, north country bus |
Grunting and chuntering, cantankerous |
Country bus, north nountry bus |
But no other bus would be good enough for us |
Through the wild, the cruel winter |
You get the coal in your eyes and the snow up your nose |
But sooner or later |
You will turn up in the village square |
With daffodils in your gaiters |
And pussy-willow in your hair |
Wait for us |
Wait for us |
Country bus |
