[00:00.98]Bus To Birmingham (LP Version) - John Michael Montgomery
[00:13.24]She didn't see me see her cryin'
[00:17.01]As she sat there by the window
[00:20.44]On a southbound Greyhound leavin' town
[00:27.42]The hardest thing I've ever done
[00:30.52]Was to walk away and let that woman go
[00:35.03]'Cause she came close to turnin' me around
[00:41.39]Now I know she missed her mama
[00:44.75]'Cause that's the kind of life she comes from
[00:48.40]Ain't no kind of life I'm ever gonna have
[00:55.01]She said  she'd call me from the station
[00:58.57]But I'll be gone before she gets there
[01:02.47]And I'll see her every time I'm lookin' back
[01:09.22]Heaven knows I ain't no angel
[01:12.67]And I don't always do the right thing
[01:16.24]And right now I know that she don't understand
[01:23.86]But I'll sleep better knowin'
[01:27.00]The only thing I ever loved
[01:30.17]Is on that bus to Birmingham
[01:40.46]Tonight I'll slip back in the shadows
[01:44.06]And I'll sip a glass of whiskey
[01:47.33]And I'll try to keep from whisperin' her name
[01:54.34]But there's some highways I ain't driven
[01:57.88]And there's some towns that I ain't lived in
[02:01.12]And there's some times that
[02:03.24]I can't get out of the rain
[02:08.76]And Lord I can't bear to break
[02:11.38]Another promise that I made her
[02:15.25]So I made out like I wanted her to go
[02:22.74]And I'm better off believin'
[02:25.74]That she's better off without me
[02:29.02]'Cause I don't want her to see me do her wrong
[02:36.15]Heaven knows I ain't no angel
[02:39.66]And I don't always do the right thing
[02:43.19]And right now I know that she don't understand
[02:50.96]But I'll sleep better knowin'
[02:54.05]The only thing I ever loved
[02:57.13]Is on that bus to Birmingham
[03:07.53]Heaven knows I don't always to the right thing
[03:14.50]And right now I know that she don't understand
[03:22.25]But I'll sleep better knowin'
[03:25.28]The only thing I ever loved
[03:28.15]Is on that bus to Birmingham
