Promised Land (Live)歌词

I left my home in Norfolk Virginia
California on my mind

Straddled that Greyhound
Rode him past Raleigh
On across Caroline

Stopped in Charlotte
And bypassed Rock Hill
And we never was a minute late

We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown
Rollin' 'cross the Georgia state

We had motor trouble it turned into a struggle
Half way 'cross Alabam

And that 'hound broke down
And left us all stranded
In downtown Birmingham

Run away I bought me a through train ticket
Ridin' cross Mississippi clean
And I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham
Smoking into New Orleans

Somebody help me get out of Louisiana
Just help me get to Houston town

There's people there who care a little 'bout me
And they won't let the poor boy down

Sure as you're born
They bought me a silk suit
Put luggage in my hands
And I woke up high over Albuquerque
On a jet to the promised land
