Here is a link to Sonia singing this terrific song. It’s badly recorded by a cell phone, but I’m so grateful I have that recording since I can’t find this song anywhere!
She came in on a Greyhound
a sight for sore eyes
gave me a smile
then threw her luggage down
and stood there
like a song without a sound.
They both always had a travelin bone
she roamed from town to town
she don’t ask for nothing and she never stays too long
but it’s a good time every time she rolls around
Use my shower
Sleep on my couch
you can keep my old blue jeans with the bottoms all worn out
rest here a while I hate to see you go
but remember me when you’re out on the road
all the colors you leave behind
we got stoned on a Sunday afternoonjust watching the trains roll by
I had my chance and somehow it fell too soon
so I just threw salt at the sky
She showed me freedom
she made me wild
and all I knew seemed so small that day
we hitchhiked down town
and that’s the last time that I saw her
but I whispered before she flew away…
Use my showerSleep on my couch
you can keep my old blue jeans with the bottoms all worn out
rest here a while I hate to see you go
but remember me when you’re out on the road
all the colors you leave behind
…of the places you know I’ll find….and the colors you leave behind…
She came in on a Greyhounda sight for sore eyes…
