letra de i got off the bus - richmond fontaine

i got off the bus
a triend of mine said he’d pick me up
but he never showed up so i made my own way

a little mexico came into sight
where once were just dying streets
where once were just small town streets
and now the sprawl seemed never ending
l called a girl i used to know
a nurse trom saint mary’s
we had a place on 7th street
but i ieft her in a rough way
her dad said she got married
was living in stockton with a baby
he said he couldn’t remember me
but i knew he was lying
the night seemed never ending

i woke up to see a policeman standing over me
i told him i grew up down the street
that had to mean something
he said he didn’t care as long
as i didn’t block the stairs

i sat in the movies
drank off a pint until i fell asleep
until a nervous 16 year old kid
was telling me i had to leave
i know what you abandon dies
what you leave leaves you too
i know you can’t go back
it there’s nothing to go back to

i sat by the river
the sky was full of stars and the water was rustling
there were men camped across from me
and the night seemed never ending
the night was never ending

i woke up to see a policeman standing over me
i told him i didn’t mean to run out on everything
he said he didn’t care
as long i got out of there
