One Way to Take Care of Business
In honor of today's guest editor, here are some songs about trains. And one about a bus. And one about a bike. And one sung by Michelle Pfeiffer. Think of it as a musical love letter to all things transport.
The Bees (U.S.) - Catch Yer Own Train
Bob Dylan - It Takes a Lot to Laugh It Takes A Train To Cry
The Cure - Jumping Someone Else's Train
Sheena Easton - Morning Train (Nine to Five)
The Velvet Underground - Train Round The Bend
Oh No! Oh My! - The Bike, Sir...
Michelle Pfeiffer - Cool Rider
Weird Al Yankovic - Another One Rides The Bus

Yeah Grease 2!!!
Wow. I remember the monorail at Disney World being the coolest thing! I wanted to ride it more than any of the actual rides at the park haha!!
Shame on you for posting "Another One Ride's The Bus" by Weird Al Yankovich. It promotes and propagates negatives stereotypes about the bus that are completely untrue!!!
Just kidding!!!!!11 that song is the SHITZ. Weird Al is da BOMB. A++++++++++ for that selection.
How can you leave out Los Angeles' own Berlin and their 1983 single, "The Metro"?
my personal fave song about transit:
The Replacements -- "Kiss Me on the Bus."
Nice list.
Some additions from great LA bands:
I second the inclusion of Berlin's "The Metro"
Guns & Roses "Nightrain"
Yet another to add to the list:
Del the Funkee Homosapien : The wacky world of public transit
Oh my Gosh! Great idea! I am thinking of a million of them now! But I especially love Bike by Pink Floyd. I think I have to run and burn a cd!
How about?
Tom Waits: Downtown Train
peace train?
"Groove Line" by Heatwave.
I wanna be your lover baby I don't wanna be your bossssssssssssssss....

Downbound Train
NYC Serenade
Does This Bus Stop At 82nd Street....

...she's afraid that the tracks are gonna slow her down.
HEY BUS DRIVER KEEP THE CHANGE
bless your children give them names!
don't trust men who walk with canes

Ha ha, Lisa, I think we're gonna have to have a Bruce-off at the next BBQ.
