All the way home from Baltimore We couldn´t find a seat Conductor says he´s sorry for The blisters on our feet Comes a-riding in a bus The high and the low Mommy, daddy, you and I Going on a trip And we´re not going home Mommy, daddy, you and I
Driving, keep driving Driving, driving all night Sleeping on my daddy´s shoulder Drinking from a paper cup And I´m wearing my grandfather´s clothes And they say that up North it gets cold
Crawling out of bed one night Walking in my sleep We´re not the only family To take this little trip Driving all the way up It´s 30 below Mommy, daddy, you and I Even little kids Getting ready to go Mommy, daddy,you and I
Chilly, Chilly-Willy It´s colder the further we go Some are born to take advantage But saying it don´t make it so So hold me and don´t let me go ´Cause the sidewalks are covered with snow
He´s speaking English now And he´s smoothing out his clothes He´s Mr. Button Down He´s leaving home
Making changes day by day And we still ain´t got no plan How we gonna make our way In this foreign land?
Well we´ll keep driving, keep driving Driving with all of our might Changing, still changing Changing the water of life Keep that little man a shining See how the tail can wag the dog
And we´re all riding in this old bus And the driver is singing to us And we´re wearing out grandfather´s clothes ´Cause we heard that up North it gets cold
