Bus 109

They forced it
 On the county school board
 And made a lot people mad
 They planned to bus
 Us off across town
 And things got really bad
 That's when
 The private schools
 Were started
 And they opened in a rush
 But daddy said
 Come September
 You'll be riding bus
 109 bus
 109 bus
 You'll be fine
 (I'll)
 (We'll)
 On bus 109
 I met Lavonna Jones
 In gym class
 She said my hair
 Had no curl
 We played
 Basketball together
 But came
 From different worlds
 Lavonna lived down
 In the projects
 Compared to her
 I had so much
 You know my life
 Was changed forever
 All because of bus
 One day Lavonna
 Came to my house
 What people thought
 Didn't matter to us
 When the lines
 Were drawn by colors
 We crossed
 The line on bus
