The little yellow school bus came to the house each day
picking up us children and carrying us away
Off we went to the little country school
back when I was little and I thought school was cool
Mr. Socks was what we all called him
maybe we didn’t know his full name then
no matter the child he greeted each with a smile
picking up children every two or 3 miles
hello there kiddos go find your seat
every day that’s the way he would greet
Every rider loved Mr. socks who drove our bus
he was always careful to take good care of us
up and down the dusty, bumpy country roads
He always glanced in his mirror to check on us as he drove
Year after year Mr. socks was there
Our friendly school bus driver who sincerely did care
