Well I'm sitting at the bus stop,
although I'm waiting for a train
It was sunny when I woke up,
now it's starting to rain
No more tricks up my sleeve,
only old gum on my boots
I don't know where you live,
but I'm coming home to you
Well, an old mama eyed me as
I was walkin' down the street
I didn't pay no mind,
I had bigger fish to feed
But if you still refuse me, I guess
I'll be leaving soon
Cause, oh, pretty mama,
I just don't know what to do
Well, I found myself a seat,
I'm takin' this ride for free
If someone asks my ticket,
it'll be the end of me
Nowhere am I gonna pay,
not in this foreign land
I've paid too much to get here,
don't these people understand?
Mama looking for a place to
crash just for the night
Can I crash at your sofa,
or just please stay around?
Cause if you just refuse me,
I'll be howling like the moon
So pretty mama, I just don't know what to do
I got off near the racetracks,
I know I've been here before
I do enjoy the journey but I don't know
what I'm going for
Nobody I know lives here anymore
All I got is memories she left
back at the door
Well a young mama came up to
me ask ing for the time
Well I said I don't really know
but I know you look so fine
And I asked her to refuse me
it's the only thing left to do
So pretty mama, I just don't know what
to do
Well, they finally caught up with me,
red -headed in my seat
My mistake it was,
but I was noble in defeat
They took my details down
in a little black pad
One free call on the house
just for being bad
Well I didn't have your number,
called up a friend to stay
And hugged my head down low
wishing I was still in bed
Cause I know you'll just refuse me
I won't bother callin' you
Cause oh pretty mama I just
don't know what to do
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey,
hey, don't know what to do
