Promised Land (Live at Hartford CT May 28 1977) - Grateful Dead[00:00:00]
I left my home in norfolk virginia [00:00:12]
California on my mind [00:00:15]
Straddled that greyhound [00:00:18]
Rode him past raleigh [00:00:19]
On across caroline [00:00:21]
Stopped in charlotte and by passed rock hill [00:00:24]
And we never was a minute late [00:00:27]
We was ninety miles out of atlanta by sundown [00:00:30]
Rolling cross the georgia state [00:00:33]
We had motor trouble it turned into a struggle [00:00:36]
Half way cross alabam [00:00:39]
And that hound broke down and left us all stranded[00:00:42]
In downtown birmingham [00:00:44]
Straight off I bought me a through train ticket [00:01:23]
Riding cross mississippi clean[00:01:26]
And I was on that midnight flyer out of birmingham[00:01:29]
Smoking into new orleans [00:01:32]
Somebody help me get out of louisiana[00:01:35]
Just help me get to houston town [00:01:39]
Theres people there who care a little about me[00:01:41]
And they won't let the poor boy down [00:01:44]
Sure as you're born they bought me a silk suit [00:01:48]
Put luggage in my hands [00:01:51]
And I woke up high over albuquerque[00:01:53]
On a jet to the promised land [00:01:56]
Working on a t-bone steak a la carte[00:02:35]
Flying over to the golden state[00:02:38]
The pilot told me in thirteen minutes[00:02:41]
Wed be heading in the terminal gate [00:02:44]
Swing low sweet chariot come down easy[00:02:47]
Taxi to the terminal zone[00:02:50]
Cut your engines cool your wings [00:02:53]
And let me make it to the telephone [00:02:56]
Los angeles give me norfolk virginia [00:02:59]
Tidewater four ten o nine[00:03:02]
Tell the folks back home[00:03:05]
This is the promised land calling[00:03:06]
And the poor boys on the line[00:03:08]
