Midnight Bus:John D. Loudermilk.
recorded in 1960.
INTRO:
#1.
Me and my baby, we left on the midnight bus.
Pulled out of Durham and left in a cloud of dust.
Headed for the border of North and South Caroline.
This time tomorrow she ll be mine.
#2.
After we had ridden for a while on the midnight bus.
We fell out and had an awful fuss.
Said goodbye, and I pulled the buzzer chord.
I got off and the driver slammed the door.
#3.
Left and lost my baby on the midnight bus.
Left and lost my baby on the midnight bus.
She s gone, my baby s gone and I m alone.
#4.
Standin in the highway, holdin my suitcase tight.
Watching that midnight bus pull out of sight.
She s gone, my baby s gone and I m alone.
OUTRO:
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
