I asked you for a ride
I was lonely
And hoping to see you before I left town
You said, "I'm sorry, I'd like to,
if only I had had the time ...
Maybe next time around."
And I walked for miles
And carried my bags
On streets with no sidewalks
In search of a ride
It was me and a Baby Ruth
A chewy chunk of chocolate truth
And here from the bus,
I would like to say thanks
Thank you.
I had imagined a breakfast of coffee and muffins
Maybe some cinnamon toast
But if I believed I would gain your attendance
I could have provided the Holy Host
And I walked for miles
In search of a ride
On streets with no sidewalks
And carried my bags
It was me and a Baby Ruth
A chewy chunk of chocolate truth
And here from the bus,
I'd just like to say thanks
Thank you.
Thanks a lot.
Thank you.
