Written with my daughter Meixing, waiting at a bus stop in the cold of winter time to keep us moving (stay warm), be in the moment, and make the most of our situation (always).

Lyrics

I don't know why it didn't stop, I missed the Dragon Bus (X4)

It was half past 5 with my girl Meixing
We walked out to the bus stop from the CDC (Child Development Center,where Mei attended day care)
Mei said dadda won't you sing it fast for me
Well if you're happy and you know it won't you clap with me
We ready to cross the street I said to look both ways
you've got to check them auto before you walk across the street
Now Mei Mei took my hand, she made me feel grand
Cos this is Papa Yogo pon the microphone stand
We wait a little bit and I begin to sing a song
I'm drumming on my lap my little girl began to stomp
Come on I said Mei Mei now we gwan catch a ride
when it opens up the mouth you've gotta step it inside

We stood on the sidewalk
In front of the bus stop
It was a freezin' outside
And the Dragon just a flew right by

I don't know why it didn't stop, I missed the Dragon Bus (X4)

So we pop it up and mixed it up and tried to stay warm
I’m jumpin’ up and down like in a two year old form
C’mon I said Mei Mei now we gwan catch a ride
When it opens up the mouth we got to step inside
We hopped upon the bus and gave a hello to the driver
I told him why my daughter call it the dragon rider
The bus color green and he mentioned to me
That ridin’ on the dragon is a figure of speech
Sometimes I think my daughter is a very old soul
She talk sophisticated like she fifty years old
She said a lot of things that really shock me
But on the way home she pulled the yellow string

I don't know why it didn't stop, I missed the Dragon Bus (X4)
