The Promised Land - Meat Loaf[00:00:00]

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

I straddled that greyhound and rode him[00:00:16]

Into raleigh and on across Caroline[00:00:18]

I had motor trouble that turned into[00:00:22]

A struggle halfway across Alabama[00:00:24]

And that 'Hound broke down and left me[00:00:27]

All stranded in downtown Birmingham[00:00:29]

Right away I bought me a through train[00:00:33]

Ticket ridin' across mississippi clean[00:00:35]

And I was on the midnight flyer out of[00:00:38]

Birmingham smokin' into new Orleans[00:00:40]

Somebody helped me get out of Louisiana[00:00:44]

Just to help me get to houston town[00:00:46]

There are people there who care a little 'bout me[00:00:49]

And they won't let a poor boy down[00:00:52]

Sure as you're born they bought me a silk[00:01:07]

Suit they put luggage in my hand[00:01:09]

And I woke up high over albuquerque[00:01:12]

On a jet to the promised land[00:01:15]

Workin' on a tbone steak I had a party flyin'[00:01:18]

Over to the golden state[00:01:21]

When the pilot told me in thirteen minutes[00:01:23]

He would get us at the terminal zone[00:01:26]

Swing low chariot come down easy taxi to the terminal zone[00:01:29]

Cut your engines and cool your wings and let me[00:01:34]

Make it to the telephone[00:01:37]

Los angeles give me Norfolk Virginia tidewater 4 10 09[00:01:40]

And tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'[00:01:45]

And the poor boy's on the line[00:01:48]

Swing low chariot come down easy taxi to the terminal zone[00:01:52]

Cut your engines and cool your wings and let me[00:01:58]

Make it to the telephone[00:02:01]

Los angeles give me Norfolk Virginia tidewater 4 10 09[00:02:03]

And tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'[00:02:08]

And the poor boy's on the line[00:02:11]

And tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'[00:02:14]

And their big boy's on the line[00:02:16]
