Long Way From the Bus Stop

Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah, mm Long way from the bus stop [Verse 1] I kept the old receipt from the first little sale Rain on the awning, still counting the mail Mama said patience, I learned it the hard way Now every small move got a plan for the next day Fresh white tee, but the work got stains I know who stayed when the room had no names Quiet with it, let the numbers speak plain I don’t need a crown just to walk through the rain [Chorus] I’m on my way, I’m on my way Turned that wait into a better day Hands stay clean, but I made my lane If you ride with me, you can share that change I’m on my way, I’m on my way Kept one promise when the rest all changed No big talk, let the proof explain If you ride with me, you can share that change [Verse 2] Corner store coffee, the lid wouldn’t fit We laughed at the plans that were bigger than it Now the same few friends got a table and seats Still know the back roads and the names on the street I don’t buy love with a watch or a chain You can’t put a price on the ones who remained Put the whole crew on, let the good come around I was built from the days when the odds held me down [Chorus] I’m on my way, I’m on my way Turned that wait into a better day Hands stay clean, but I made my lane If you ride with me, you can share that change I’m on my way, I’m on my way Kept one promise when the rest all changed No big talk, let the proof explain If you ride with me, you can share that change [Outro] Long way from the bus stop Still got the same heart Yeah, I’m on my way
