Momma's tears fell so easy 
Daddy's handshake was strong
Then I climbed aboard that Greyhound 
Eighteen and glad to be gone
Took a rented room on Broadway 
And as I unpacked everything I owned
I found a note my mama left me 
With a Bible and a bus ticket home
It said one will get you where you're going 

When you haven't got a prayer
And one will bring you back, son 
If your dreams ain't waiting there
You're out on your own now 
We won't be there to fall back on
But you know we're never farther than 
A Bible and a bus ticket home

The years have come and gone and taken 
The only things in life I ever counted on
But I'm going back tomorrow
To lay flowers at their stone
I can almost hear my mama calling saying 
Son come back where you belong
You've got all you need to get here 
A Bible and a bus ticket home
It said one will get you,
Boy, you know we're never farther than 
A Bible and a bus ticket home
