If you miss me at the back of the bus
You can’t find me nowhere.
Come on up to the front of the bus
I’ll be riding up there.
Chorus:
I’ll be riding up there,
I’ll be riding up there.
Come on up to the front of the bus,
I’ll be riding up there
If you’re looking for shelter
You can’t find it nowhere.
Come on up to the greenbelt,
Folks are camping up there…
Chorus:
Folks are camping up there, etc.
If you miss me in the greenbelt
You can’t find me nowhere
Come on over to Nickelsville,
Folks are building up there…
Chorus:
Folks are building up there, etc.
If you miss me at Nickelsville
You can’t find me nowhere
Come on down to the jailhouse,
We’ll be bunking down there…
Chorus:
We’ll be bunking down there, etc.
If you miss me at the jailhouse
You can’t find me nowhere
That’s cause we all stood together
We’re still building up here!…
Chorus:
We’re still building up here, etc.
