Road mighty and king
It was always Greyhound doing its thing
Flashing lights and the stretched hound
Move out the way traffic and move aside, I am Greyhound
Greyhound being America’s Icon
But these days, First Group has became a con
Greyhound has a name that captures hearts being fond
What would happen if Greyhound were no longer on the road?
The sunrise and Sunset would have no behold
It would be a darken highway
No Greyhound seen on any freeway
A sad day with Greyhound losing its bark
But with no bus you will find a place to park
The Go Greyhound could become leave the driving to someone else
So avoid the bus would actually be a fuss
First Group is selling Greyhound being the Parent Throop
Silently and quietly unnoticed scoop
Employees including Drivers have made Greyhound it’s own institution
But I am not making Greyhound a conclusion
Time has a when
Thinking only in assumption of then
Now wait until
Greyhound still has travelling to fulfill
Where there is a way is followed by will
Now no one knows Greyhound’s future outcome
I am not even suggesting Dust in the wind
A Hound Dog will always have victory to the finish, and that is what makes Greyhound so distinguished
So those flashing lights and your acceleration
It’s America saluting you with all your appreciation
Continue to Go and the road is your flow
Go Greyhound and let me lead
Greyhound I want you to continue to proceed
Please don’t become a flood that receded
We need your presence and acceleration in the wind
Your blinking lights that flash every now and then
You are Greyhound because you can
This is not Greyhound’s end.

It's Wednesday, April 2, 1997, at 12:00 PM
I took a Greyhound bus to Des Moines, Iowa
It was a six-hour profanity demon hellride
At 6:00 PM, the Greyhound bus arrived at the Des Moines bus station
Two of my music fans picked me up and drove me to Fort Dodge, Iowa

At 2:00 PM on Friday, April 4, 1997, I went on a radio show joyride
I whipped out my Technics KN3000 keyboard and sung four rock songs on 88.1 KICB
At 6:30 PM, I rode with my friends to Knights of Columbus for sound checking
At 9:30 PM, I got up on stage and sung twenty rock songs in front of 200 rock fans

At 11:20 AM on Saturday, April 5, 1997, I caught the Greyhound bus to Chicago, Illinois
The Greyhound bus left Des Moines, Iowa at 11:30 AM
It was an eight-hour profanity demon hellride without music
At 7:30 PM, the Greyhound bus arrived at the Chicago bus station
I then got off the intercity bus and yelled like a stupid fool

Hell Greyhound bus ride

Kinkos, it's the new way to office

The hour of midnight of tomorrow dark
A vision like a stark
Fog thickened like solid mug
A Greyhound Bus Terminal ghostly in spiritual nature
Yet adding to the mystery appeared a Greyhound Bus
Driver and passengers were in nothing more than past spirits
They had often travelled this road many times
Flesh wasn’t there mark
It was a Greyhound Bus that just decided to park
The characteristics of the Greyhound Bus was the blinking lights
It became a circumstance contributing fright
But it will be a thriller starting tonight
The Stretched out Greyhound dog trademark with Evil on its mind
Car and Truck Drivers witnessed the disturbed revengeful Greyhound Bus on the highway
It was the look being the last highway to hell
The Blood was flesh thrown off the highway by the Greyhound bus
Most of the flesh had previously died
The spirits were on a rampage at Greyhound
Bus Dispatchers were announcing agendas and not schedules
The roll call being an assignment to destroy
There was no more happy in joy
The night was had a evil twist being fierce
The Greyhound Bus stretched had Dracula teeth and eyes being Red
A thirst to fulfill but with acceleration at will
There’s no time to be still
There was definitely evil powers having everyone being hypnotized
But it was the obsession of the Greyhound Bus under control
The number of the Greyhound Bus 1811
Years ago something on that one
The bus got into a terrible accident
Everyone died but Souls would return with a rage against the living flesh
Midnight will soon strike
Souls who died on that Greyhound bus 1811 will arise and walk the streets in rage
Midnight has struck and it’s too late
It was written on that very date
A hound bus will be bound and there will be no one sound
The town of Jeffersonville know all too well about the Greyhound bus curse
No time for any written verse
Souls have risen
Greyhound bus spiritual revenge having no wait
Again, it was anticipated
A night that would come
Don’t travel on Greyhound bus 1811 restored
There might be an evil plan having an accord.
