Every time I see a v-w bus from the sixties I get a big smile. This
song is the journey and the experiences from that trip. “I’m just
driving my Little Red Bus.”
Lyrics
Chorus
Little red bus, little red bus
I’m just driving my little red bus
Little red bus, little red bus
We’re all just driving our little red bus
Verse 1
Elvis was a friend of mine
He sold me some shares in time
Shares in time twiddlely dee
The tax man cometh for a fee
Seven come eleven you roll the dice
The price is paid you pay the price
Chorus
Verse 2
Doctor Watson and who’s his name
Are looking for a man to frame
They got the edge on the scene of the crime
The public wants to know but their biding time
The choo choo train is making tracks
For the manikins down at Saks
5th Avenue is the place to be
The walls get high for you and me
Chorus
Bridge
You may think I’m crazy
For the words in this song
But two rights for the righteous
Will always make a wrong
So gas me up for a week at the shore
Gilligan’s coming back again
For a 3 hour tour
Chorus
Verse 3
Here’s a deal and there’s a deal
So come bring your bets to the spinning wheel
Exactly was and exactly is
Just left over soda fizz
The highways and the byways are weighted down
Captain Kirk’s gone underground
He’s holding his ears and he’s waiting for
The return of the magical mystery tour
Chorus
LITTLE RED BUS
