"We can share what we got of yours cause we done shared all of mine."
For me this line has always summed up the bus - a place that the music got you to board - and piecing that together I'll leave to the wordsmith guy.

'I just jumped the watchman
Right outside the fence
Took his ring, four bucks in change
Now ain't that heaven sent?'
Jack Straw isn't about sharing - it's about taking what you need to survive. "We done shared all of mine' - you've taken everything I have, now it's your turn.
