Misty River - Slice of Life lyrics

Stepped on the city bus ‘bout a half past ten Long day that began I don't know when Woman with a baby sat across the way Going somewhere I cannot say Chorus Who knows where this bus will lead Just a slice of life at low speed Steppin' on steppin' off each stop of the way Just a slice of life on a typical day Woman and her honey come a stumblin' in Holding tight to the rail with a sway and a spin Crazy laughing at his every word Couldn't care less that everyone heard Chorus Girl in the corner just shakes her head Tells the woman to be quiet or she'll wind up dead Woman yells “kids have no manners these days If I was your mother you'd have hell to pay.” Chorus Driver yells “what is all the fuss? Don't make me stop this bus.” Woman and the girl throw each other a look Scared enough I hide behind my book So the next time you're riding on bus #36 You never know who might be in your mix Tired folks, wired folks and those in between You just gotta hope they don't get too mean Chorus
