The Promised Land - Hit Crew Masters[00:00:00]
I left my home in Norfolk Virginia[00:00:11]
California on my mind[00:00:13]
I straddled that greyhound[00:00:16]
And rode into Raleigh[00:00:17]
And on across Caroline[00:00:19]
We had motor trouble that turn into a struggle[00:00:21]
Halfway across Alabama[00:00:24]
And that hound broke down and left us all stranded[00:00:26]
In downtown Birmingham[00:00:29]
Right away I brought me a through train ticket[00:00:32]
Riding across Mississippi clean[00:00:34]
And I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham[00:00:37]
Smoking into New Orleans[00:00:39]
Somebody help me get out of Louisiana[00:00:42]
Just to help me get to Houston town[00:00:44]
There are people there who care a lot about me[00:00:47]
And they won't let the poor boy down[00:00:49]
Pick a song[00:00:51]
Sure as you're born brought me a silk suit[00:01:05]
Put luggage in my hand[00:01:07]
And I woke up high over Alburquerque[00:01:10]
On a jet to the promised land[00:01:12]
Working on a tbone steak ala carte[00:01:15]
Flying over to the golden state[00:01:17]
When the pilot told us in 13 minutes[00:01:20]
He would set us at the terminal gate[00:01:23]
Swing low chariot come down easy[00:01:25]
Taxi to the terminal zone[00:01:28]
Cut your engines and cool your wings[00:01:31]
Let me make it to the telephone[00:01:33]
Los Angeles[00:01:35]
Give me Norfolk Virginia tidewater 4 10 or 9[00:01:37]
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling[00:01:40]
And the poor boy is on the line[00:01:43]
Sure as you're born he bought me a silk suit[00:01:59]
Put a luggage in my hand[00:02:01]
And I woke up high over Albuquerque[00:02:04]
On a jet to the promised land[00:02:06]
Working on a tbone steak a la carte[00:02:09]
Flying over to the Golden State[00:02:11]
When the pilot told us in 13 minutes[00:02:14]
He would set us at the terminal gate[00:02:16]
Swing low chariot come down easy[00:02:20]
Taxi to the terminal zone[00:02:22]
Cut your engines and cool your wings[00:02:25]
Let me make it to the telephone[00:02:27]
Los Angeles[00:02:31]
Give me Norfolk Virginia tidewater 4 10 or 9[00:02:32]
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling[00:02:36]
The poor boy is on the line[00:02:39]
