Donnie Takes The Bus

[Verse 1]

Donnie took the last bus today

The 11:45 to the JFK

Town to town, just looking for a friend

He got off in Hackettstown and then he started to bartend

[PreChorus]

Go back to Newark, go back to State

My dad, he told me not to wait, oh yeah, oh yeah

'Cause I bet you've never read a goddamn poem

And he said, "Oh my Lord, when are you gonna come home?"

[Chorus]

'Cause it's time you see, it's time you see

Don't take what you want, you take what you need

'Cause we're all dust in the good Lord's breeze

And the wind don't blow where you wanna bе

[Verse 2]

Uncle Ray got married to Linda Lowdown

In a pale bluе tux, he tucked inside his own vows

And he said, "It takes a woman like you to love a man like me"

But she said, "Oh my Lord, when am I gonna be free?"

[Chorus]

Well, it's time you see, it's time you see

Don't take what you want, you take what you need

'Cause we're all dust in the good Lord's breeze

And the wind don't blow where you wanna be (Whoa-whoa)

[PreChorus]

Go back to Newark, go back to State

Jersey Joe was never one to wait, oh yeah, oh yeah

'Cause town to town, sea to sea, Joe, he ran out of empathy

And said, "Oh my Lord, when am I gonna be free?"

[Chorus]

'Cause it's time you see, it's time you see

Don't take what you want, you take what you need

'Cause we're all dust in the good Lord's breeze

And the wind don't blow where you wanna be

[Chorus]

Well, it's time you see, it's time you see

Don't take what you want, you take what you need

'Cause we're all dust in the good Lord's breeze

And the wind don't blow where you wanna be (Whoa
