Sara Evans "Backseat Of A Greyhound Bus" by Sara Evans (Chris Lindsey/Hillary Lindsey/Aimee Mayo/Troy Verges)

1st Verse

She wore a dress with cherries on it
Goin' somewhere where she'd be wanted
(In) a town this small all they do is talk
No wedding ring, chipped fingernail polish
She always wished that she could go to college
But some dreams fade, they just slip away
She started to show
A few month's ago, and she had to go
That's how she wound up

1st Chorus

On the backseat of a Greyhound bus
Head hung down with the windows up
Starin' at the rest of her life
She never thought this would be the place
Where she would find her saving grace
But she fell in love, she fell in love
On the backseat of a Greyhound bus
Oh yeah, yeah

2nd Verse

The moon was full, the stars were smilin'
God has a funny sense of timin'
The baby came on the Interstate
Somewhere between Jackson and Memphis
She finally found what she had been missin'
She cried and laughed while the red lights flashed
Sweet baby girl
She looked into the face of a new
The face of a brand new world

2nd Chorus

On the backseat of a Greyhound bus
Heart so full that it could bust
Starin' at the rest of her life
She never thought this would be the place
Where she would find her saving grace
But she fell in love, she fell in love
On the backseat of a Greyhound bus

Bridge

Sweet baby girl
She found a brand new world

(Repeat 2nd Chorus)
