two happy people on a greyhound bus we came here looking for a life for us but the nightlife is her new life and the only thing i ve found is san francisco is a lonely town oh there were good times for a little while but now her new friends say i cramp her style i guess i m only in the way now and she don t need me hanging round san francisco is a lonely town now she s out there somewhere across the bay and she ll be wondering where i am when she gets in today she ll find i ve left her a oneway ticket home and while she stands there crying all alone and while the greyhound keeps on rolling i ll pray the lord she s found san francisco is a lonely town san francisco is a lonely town
