Current song lyrics
I left my home in Norfolk Virginia California on my mind<br />I strattled that greyhound and rode him into Releigh and on across Caroline<br />Stopped at Charlotte and we by passed Blackhill we never was a minute late<br />We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown rollin' out of Georgia state<br />Had mottor trouble that turned into a struggle halfway across Alabama<br />And that bound broke down and left us all stranded in downtown Birmingham<br /><br />[ steel ]<br />Right away I bought me a through train ticket ridin' across Mississippi clean<br />And I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham smokin' into New Orleans<br />Somebody help me get out of Louisiana just the help me get to Houston town<br />There's people there who care a little bout me and they won't let a poor boy down<br />Sure as you're born they brought me a silk suit and put luggage in my hand<br />And I woke up high over Albuquerque on a jet to the promised land<br /><br />[ fiddle ]<br />Workin' on a T-bone steak I had a party flyin' over to the golden state<br />When the pilot told us in thirteen minutes he would get us at the terminal gate<br />Swing low chariot come down easy taxi to the terminal zone<br />Cut your engines and cool your wings and let me make it to the telephone<br />Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia tied Water 4-10-0-9<br />Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin' and the poor boy's on the line<br />Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin' and the poor boy's on the line
