Letra de I Got off the Bus

[Verse 1]
I got off the bus
A friend of mine said he’d pick me up
But he never showed up so I made my own way
Little Mexico came into sight
Where once were just dying streets
Where once were just small town streets
Now the sprawl seemed never ending
[Verse 2]
Called a girl I used to know
A nurse trom Saint Mary's
We had a place on 7th street
But I left her in a rough way
Her dad said she got married
Was living in Stockton with a baby
He said he couldn’t remember me
But I knew he was lying
And the night seemed never ending
[Chorus]
I woke up to see
A policeman standing over me
I told him I grew up down the street
That had to mean something
He said he didn’t care
As long as I didn’t block the stairs
[Verse 3]
I sat in the movies
Drank off a pint until I fell asleep
Until a nervous 16 year old kid
Was telling me I had to leave
I know what you abandon dies
And what you leave leaves you too
I know you can’t go back
It there’s nothing to go back to
[Verse 4]
I sat by the river
The sky was full of stars and the water was rustling
There were men camped across from me
And the night seemed never ending
Oh, the night was never ending
[Chorus]
I woke up to see
A policeman standing over me
I told him I didn’t mean to run out on everything
He said he didn’t care
As long I got out of there
