Well if you got a band and you're tired of the band
Then you better take a tip from us
Better save your money 'cause I'm tellin' you, honey
Gonna need it for a broke down bus
[?], any old van
Or a Jimmy or an MCI
Round back, square back, flex or a hump back
All break down some time

Buses break down, it's a fact, it's a fact
Buses break down, it's a fact
Red ones, blue ones, old ones, new ones
Buses break down, it's a fact

Well it ain't if, then it's gonna be when
You see us on the side of the road
We might be broke down but we'll make it to town
Just in time for the show
So buy your tickets and shine your boots
Get ready to head to town
Don't you spare, we'll be there
Even if the bus breaks down

They can't all break down, Ray
Well let me tell you, Dale
Mine, yours, [?], George's
Buses break down, it's a fact
Red ones, blue ones, old ones, new ones
Buses break down, it's a fact
