Waitin’ for the Bus / Jesus Just Left Chicago lyrics

[Verse 1]
Have mercy, been waitin' for the bus all day
Have mercy, been waitin' for the bus all day
I got my brown paper bag and my take-home pay

[Verse 2]
Have mercy, old bus be packed up tight
Have mercy, old bus be packed up tight
Well, I'm glad just to get on and home tonight

[Verse 3]
Right on, that bus done got me back
Right on, that bus done got me back
Well, I'll be ridin' on the bus 'till I Cadillac

[Verse 4]
Jesus just left Chicago and he's bound for New Orleans
Well now, Jesus just left Chicago and he's bound for New Orleans, yeah
Workin' from one end to the other and all points in between

[Verse 5]
Took a jump through Mississippi, well, muddy water turned to wine
Yeah, took a jump through Mississippi, muddy water turned to wine, yeah
Then out to California through the forests and the pines
Ah, take me with you, Jesus
[Verse 6]
You might not see him in person but he'll see you just the same
Oh, you might not see him in person, but he'll see you just the same, yeah
You don't have to worry 'cause takin' care of business is his name

[Outro]
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Whoa
