Hello Greyhound

Marg, Art, Alton & Sharon Corey/BMI Copyright 2001(c)

Intro
Here comes that Greyhound Texas Southbound
I know you've seen this boy before
Ain't the first time, ain't the last time
A lovin' woman has walked out my door

1st Verse
She left me thinkin' things could be good
She left me drinkin' more than I should
She left forever so what else is new?
I had my bus fare tucked in my shoe

Chorus
Hello Greyhound...Texas Southbound
I know you've seen this boy before
Ain't the first time, ain't the last time
A lovin' woman has walked out my door

2nd Verse
A man needs lovin' to make him feel fine
A man needs gamblin' sweet talk and wine
A man wakes up in terrible shape
He needs a bus for an easy escape.....

Chorus repeat

Bridge
Someday a woman will love me for life
Someday a woman will end up my wife
Just for now....it's Texas or bust
Oh, Lord a woman is drivin' this bus.....


This song has a good feel too it. Kind of an "Old Country" feel too it. The instrumentation and vocals worked well for the song. I enjoyed listening to it. I can see being used in a soundtrack possibly.

I like the backing track. Good playing by all players. Nice groove that moves along well and gets your attention. I also like the phrase "Greyhound heading southbound." Good that you added a key change, right at the right time. Very good vocal character.

A really great first line that really set the stage. Didn't take long to be feeling sorry for this sad sack...the vocal was pretty wobbly, but that only made the song work better...he kinda sounded like a guy in the middle of a bad patch...and that last line about the bus driver being a woman set the stage again...for another song...lol

Like the lyric direction, and the recording is top-notch.
