The Cardiff Bus Song


By Lee Smith, 2012-09-13

Those fantastic chaps at I Loves The 'Diff have come up with something totally special. (they never let us down!) This time featuring something that is very close to the hearts of loads of Cardiffians (but probably an annoyance to some!) yep CARDIFF BUS !!!

They have taken the theme tune from The Littlest Hobo and totally rewritten it with lyrics such as,

  • "Maindy, Tremorfa, Pontcanna, Adamsdown,"
  • "This Cardiff Bus is taking us to town."
Paying tribute to the range of routes that Cardiff Bus operate in and around Cardiff and Barry. I'm sure you will just HAVE to watch it all the way through to spot the special appearance by Rhiannon the sheep and some other familiar sights from Cardiff. The bus-spotters out there may be watching for other reason (did I spot an A Aisla in there somewhere?)

There's a place, that's always been for me,
On Cardiff's streets is where I loves to be,
And every stop I make, I make a new friend,
Can't wait for long, just hop right on, and we're gone again.

Maindy, Tremorfa, Pontcanna, Adamsdown,
This Cardiff Bus is taking us to town.

Route 95 would take us to Barry,
But then it rained, so we took the 53,
And if you're going out drinking for the night,
Just grab the bus, chips n curry sauce, don't have a fight!

Llandaff, Gabalfa, Llanederyn, Cardiff Bay,
For three quid forty I can ride the bus all day.
And every stop I make, I make a new friend,
Can't wait for long, just hop right on, and we're gone again.

Maindy, Tremorfa, Pontcanna, Adamsdown,
This Cardiff Bus is taking us to town.

On sunny days, in Roald Dahl Plass I'll be,
When I gets old, I'll ride the bus for free,
Down in ol' Tiger Bay, and Riverside,
The bendy buses, take more of us for a ride.

Splott, Canton, Ely, Llanrumney, Roath Park Lake,
Oh, Cardiff Bus is the only one I take.

The 62 goes to Pentrebane,
The 85 take you to Lisvane,
And every stop I make, I make a new friend,
Can't wait for long, just hop right on, and we're gone again.

Maindy, Tremorfa, Pontcanna, Adamsdown,
This Cardiff Bus is taking us to town.
And every stop I make, I make a new friend,
Can't wait for long, just hop right on, and we're gone again.

Splott, Canton, Ely, Llanrumney, Roath Park Lake,
Oh, Cardiff Bus is the only one I take.
