The Bus Won’t Stop

Lyrics

“J-Hawk the Freeloader” Verse 1 J-Hawk the freeloader had some low test scores, Now he ain’t welcome ’round the classroom doors. Traded in his textbooks for a five-gallon pail, Headed down to the river where the drumbeats wail. Pre-Chorus He’s barefoot dancing in a cloud of smoke, Charging five bucks just to hear a bad joke. Checking county job listings every afternoon, But the drum circle starts—so he’ll apply next June. Chorus Oh, J-Hawk, J-Hawk, what happened to the plan? Selling what he’s got just to make a couple grand. Down by the river, shaking everything he owns, While Enso Farms sits empty with a “For Sale” stone. No cash? No problem—come and take it off our hands, We’ll trade the whole damn farm for some basketball cards! Verse 2 He applied for road crew, parks, and animal control, Said, “Benefits and dental would be good for my soul.” The county asked for references—he handed them a note: “Ask anybody by the river—I’m the rhythm-section GOAT.” Bridge Enso Farms is up for sale, the price is falling fast, Started at a million, now they’ll take Shaq from the past. A rookie Kobe might just get the paperwork signed, Throw in a holographic Jordan—they’ll leave the tractor behind! Final Chorus Oh, J-Hawk, J-Hawk, king of living free, Got no job, no plan, but he’s got good energy. Down by the river where the bongos never stop, Selling hugs for twenty—or whatever you have got. The county might hire him if he ever makes the call, But he’s trading Enso Farms for a signed LaMelo Ball! Outro Yeah, Enso Farms must go—bring your binders, bring your cards… And somebody please come pick up J-Hawk from the yard!
