Promised Land (Lyceum London England 5/23/1972) (live) - Grateful Dead[00:00:00]

I left my home in Norfolk Virginia California on my mind[00:00:11]

Straddled that Greyhound it rode me past Raleigh[00:00:17]

And on across Caroline[00:00:20]

Stopped in Charlotte and bypassed Rock Hill[00:00:24]

We never was a minute late[00:00:26]

We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown[00:00:29]

Rolling cross the Georgia state[00:00:32]

We had motor trouble it turned into a struggle[00:00:35]

Half way across Alabam[00:00:38]

The ahound broke down left us all stranded[00:00:41]

In downtown Birmingham[00:00:44]

Straight off bought me a through train ticket right across Mississippi clean[00:01:12]

And I was on the midnight flyer out of Birmingham[00:01:17]

Smoking into new Orleans[00:01:20]

Somebody help me get out of Louisiana[00:01:23]

Just help me get to Houston town[00:01:26]

People are there who care a little bout me[00:01:29]

And they won't let the poor boy down[00:01:33]

Sure as she bore me she bought me a silk suit[00:01:35]

Put luggage in my hands[00:01:39]

And I woke up high over Albuquerque[00:01:41]

On a jet to the promised land[00:01:44]

Working on a t-bone steak a la carte[00:02:12]

Flying over to the golden state[00:02:14]

When the pilot told us in thirteen minutes[00:02:18]

Wed be heading in the terminal gate[00:02:20]

Swing low sweet chariot come down easy[00:02:24]

Taxi to the terminal zone[00:02:27]

Cut your engines cool your wings[00:02:30]

And let me make it to the telephone[00:02:33]

Los angeles give me Norfolk Virginia[00:02:36]

Tidewater four ten on nine[00:02:39]

Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling[00:02:42]

And the poor boys on the line[00:02:45]
