Get on the Bus

About Get on the Bus

"Get on the Bus" is a song by American recording group Destiny's Child featuring musician Timbaland. It was written by Timbaland and Missy Elliott and recorded by the band for the original motion picture soundtrack of Gregory Nava's romantic drama Why Do Fools Fall in Love (1998), featuring production by Timbaland and Elliott. As with other Timbaland productions that were crafted in the late 1990s, the single features some unorthodox parts, including the sounds of birds. Released as the second single from the soundtrack album, "Get on the Bus" became a moderate commercial success throughout Europe, reaching the top 20 of the Dutch Singles Chart and UK Singles Chart. In the United States, it also received some minor airplay on urban radio, resulting in a number 63 charting on Billboard's Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay chart. An accompanying music video for the track was directed by Earle Sebastian. The song was later featured on the international edition of Destiny's Child's second studio album The Writing's on the Wall and included in the set list of their 2001–2002 world tour. more »

Uh uh 
Hey baby how you 
Why yo face lookin' all sad and blue 
Don't you like the Navigator truck that I brought you 
Why you trying to act a fool 
Don't try to say you seen me talking to your girlfriends 
Ask Tonya and Shirl then 
Gimme a place and time when 
Don't try to accuse me of silly stuff that I'm doing on the streets 
You gotta remember, without you, there's no me 
I'm just an average man 
Tryin' to make it in this cold world 
Tell me baby, why you trippin', girl 

I don't want to fuss with you 
So I'm gonna sit out on the couch 
Don't try to talk to me 
'cause boy I am blocking you out 
I don't want to hear a thing 
Nothing you got to say 
You should think twice 
About the way you've been talking to me 

[Chorus] 
Pack yo bags 
Get on the bus 
Ain't got no time (for) 
Talkin' all yo stuff 
Need to pack my stuff 
Since this's what you want 
I don't really care 
There's no more 
Go catch a cab or 
Get on the bus 
I ain't got no time for 
You talkin' all that junk 
Better get my stuff 
Since this is what you want 
I don't really care 

I ain't got no words for you 
So you can stop callin' my friends 
Tellin' them it wasn't your fault 
And why I ain't lettin' you in 
Too many times before 
I let you back in my life 
But this is a new day 
And this won't go down tonight 

[Chorus] 

Mm, mm (da-da-duh-da-da) 
Mm, mm (who) 
Mm, mm 
Mm, mm {say what} 

Introduce you to Dolce and Gervana 
Advance you from dirt bikes to Hondas 
Took you from that terrible stress 
Now you telling me that I am a bother 
What kind of mess is that 
To tell a man who put you on his team 
That's just like killing a dream 
(No no baby) That's how it seems 
I worked hard to build up what I had for you 
I pray to God, that there's not another man between me and you 
So just tell me 
There's no need to lie for 
While you sleepin' with your eyes closed 
Do you want to talk, aight yo 

[Chorus: x2]
