It's nine o' clock, I'm in the garage
I started the bus, drove it in
There's a toolkit sittin' next to me
Ready to help me put the heads in.
Spouse says, "Are you working on that thing again?"
I say, "Have to, to make it go!"
I've got this thing beat and the engine's complete
Hopefully, the end of my woes.
La la de da, a la de da da dum ...
I sing a song, I'm Bus Repair Man
A new song every night
And workin' on my bus is a joy to me,
'Specially when she's working all right
Ron of the Depot is a friend of mine:
He gets me my parts for cheap
If your engine croaks or starts to spit black smoke,
Then he's really the man you should see.
He says, "The type2 list really does help me,"
A smile drew itself across his face;
"I'm sure that we all would not be where we are
If not for the folks in this place."
La la de da, a la de da da dum ...
I sing a song, I'm Bus Repair Man
A new song every night
And workin' on my bus is a joy to me,
'Specially when she's working all right
And Paul is a government scientist
Who posts to the list every night
And he's talking with Davy, who paints his Dub navy,
And has been a 'Dub fan for life
And someone's planning yet another meet,
I search for a bus to call my own,
And we're sharing a thing we call Dubbin', yes -
It's much better than driving alone
La la de da, a la de da da dum ...
I sing a song, I'm Bus Repair Man
A new song every night
And workin' on my bus is a joy to me,
'Specially when she's working all right
I've done a pretty good job this Saturday
As I close up my toolbox and smile;
'Cause I know that it's me that does the upkeep
To forget about life for a while.
And the engine sounds like a pussycat,
The paint looks like it's just been waxed up,
As I close things up tight and turn out the light,
I fall in love again with my Bus.
