If You Miss Me at the Back of the Bus Songtext

von Pete Seeger

If you miss me at the back of the bus, and you can't find me nowhere.
Come on up to the front of the bus, I'll be sittin' right there.
I'll be sittin' right there,
I'll be sittin' right there.
Come on up to the front of the bus,
I'll be sittin' right there.

If you miss me at the Mississippi River, and you can't find me nowhere.
Come on over to the swimmin' pool, I'll be swimmin' over there.
I'll be swimmin' over there,
I'll be swimmin' over there.
Come on over to the swimmin' pool,
I'll be swimmin' over there.

If you miss me at Jackson State, and you can't find me nowhere.
Come on over to Old Miss, I'll be learnin' right there.
I'll be learnin' right there,
I'll be learnin' right there.
Come on over to Old Miss,
I'll be learnin' right there.

If you miss me at the picket lines, and you can't find me nowhere.
Come on down, to the jailhouse, I'll be roomin' over there.
I'll be roomin' over there,
I'll be roomin' over there.
Come on down to the jailhouse,
I'll be roomin' over there.

If you miss me at the cotton fields, and you can't find me nowhere.
Come on down to the court house, I'll be votin' right there.
I'll be votin' right there,
I'll be votin' right there.
Come on down to the courthouse,
I'll be votin' right there.

If you miss me at the back of the bus, and you can't find me nowhere.
Come on up to the front of the bus, I'll be sittin' up there.
I'll be sittin' up there,
I'll be sittin' up there.
Come on up to the front of the bus,
I'll be sitting' up there
