Lyrics

Country bus, north country bus
Clumsy and cumbersome, rumbustious
Country bus, north country bus
Though you’re a slow coach you’re OK for us
Though your cargo is confusion
Sheepmen and cowgirls and chickens galore up the back
No need to hurry:
We couldn’t care less what the time may be
And there’s no call to worry
If you smell a bit, so do we
Villainous, malodorous
Country bus, north country bus
Rollicking, frolicking, uproarious
Country bus, North Country bus
You’re rusty and you’re dusty but you’re OK for us
Though your seats are rather Spartan
We’ve got the springs in our backsides to ride out your bounce
Though you may stumble
After the dance on a Sat’day night
Backseat lovers don’t grumble;
They seem to manage alright
Amorous, scandalous
Country bus, north country bus
Lusty and rustic and impetuous
Country bus, North Country bus
Bog-trotting bumpkin, you’re OK for us
Though your progress is uncertain
'specially at night when the public house closes its doors
You tend to dodder
Staggering home from The Bull Hotel
We, we never bother
'cause we’ve got the staggers as well
Glorious, notorious
Country bus, north country bus
Grunting and chuntering, cantankerous
Country bus, north nountry bus
But no other bus would be good enough for us
Through the wild, the cruel winter
You get the coal in your eyes and the snow up your nose
But sooner or later
You will turn up in the village square
With daffodils in your gaiters
And pussy-willow in your hair
Wait for us
Wait for us
Country bus
