Promissed Land - The Hit Band[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 and on across Caroline[00:00:17]

We had motor trouble that turn into a struggle[00:00:21]

Halfway across Alabama[00:00:23]

And that hound broke down and left us all stranded[00:00:26]

In downtown Birmingham[00:00:28]

Right away I brought me a through train ticket[00:00:31]

Ridin' across Mississippi clean[00:00:33]

I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham[00:00:36]

Smoking into New Orleans[00:00:39]

Somebody help me get out of Louisiana[00:00:42]

Just help me get to Houston Town[00:00:44]

There are people there who care a little about me[00:00:47]

And they won't let the poor boy down[00:00:49]

Sure as you're born brought me a silk suit[00:01:07]

Put luggage in my hand[00:01:09]

And I woke up high over Albuquerque[00:01:11]

On a jet to the promised land[00:01:13]

Working on a T-bone steak a la carte[00:01:16]

Flying over to the golden state[00:01:19]

When the pilot told us in thirteen minutes[00:01:21]

He would set us at the terminal gate[00:01:23]

Swing low chariot come down easy[00:01:27]

Taxi to the terminal zone[00:01:29]

Cut your engines and cool your wings[00:01:31]

And let me make it to the telephone[00:01:34]

Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia[00:01:37]

Tidewater four ten o nine[00:01:39]

Tell the folks back home[00:01:42]

This is the promised land calling[00:01:43]

And the poor boy is on the line[00:01:44]
