And it's great out here, There's no city lights anymore. The comet's so bright lately, Perfect night for dreaming Of VWs and stars. (refrain) And my bus changed my life tonight, Way out here. I almost fell to the big city, It's better here. Cities always make me so tired, Commuting, hypnotized. Sweet freedom whispered in my ear I'm a Bus lover And in my Bus I'm going to drive, Drive away, far away, bye bye. I've had to spend those many dollars, Tune up for hours, Visions of that perfect Bus in my dreams. I've got the engine dressed up nice and clean But I've not yet fixed the rust in the seams. I'm up till four in the morning - Again! But I'm doing good, I've fixed the wiper speed tonight Just in time, thank god my Bus is still alive. (refrain) Yes, I know I've plunged headlong Into the restoration river, Clinging to Hoover and Muir, But I feel I could do this forever. I'm leaving in the morning, With my Bus to take me home (refrain) My Bus changed my life tonight My Bus changed my life tonight My Bus changed my life tonight My Bus changed my life tonight My Bus changed my life tonight So spend your cash And in your Bus you're not alone (refrain) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- See the VW Bus Song Parody Archive: http://www.vanagon.com/fun/songs/ !
