There's a little kid who's sitting right across from me
Four chairs facing a table and she's kicking my knees
And to do so she has to slump way down in her seat
Her mom says I'm sorry
But I am smiling cause
I'm on the bus from Bakersfield
Can't wait to go home and have a hot meal
Tell all the bus people it's been real
Cause I know how they feel
Riding from Bakersfield
Now Glendale Station is a place right by my house
We stopped there for a moment and I tried to get out
But Alex bought a ticket to a different stop
Driver won't let me off so I will
Just be cross cause
I'm on the bus from Bakersfield
Can't wait to go home and have a hot meal
Tell all the bus people it's been real
Cause I know how they feel
Riding from Bakersfield
Pulling into Union Station and I'm almost free
I just gotta get my bag and then I'll see Quimby
I just gotta find his car so I will use my phone
And then he'll drive me home
Won't have to sing this song
No
I'm on the bus from Bakersfield
Can't wait to go home and have a hot meal
Tell all the bus people it's been real
Cause I know how they feel
Riding from Bakersfield
I'm on the bus from Bakersfield
Can't wait to go home and have a hot meal
Tell all the bus people it's been real
Cause I know how they feel
Riding from Bakersfield
