Promised Land(Take 5) - Elvis Presley[00:00:00]

I left my home in Norfolk Virginia[00:00:17]

California on my mind[00:00:19]

I straddled that Greyhound[00:00:22]

And rode into Raleigh[00:00:23]

And on across Caroline[00:00:25]

We had motor trouble that turn into a struggle[00:00:28]

Halfway across Alabam'[00:00:30]

And that hound broke down[00:00:33]

And left us all stranded[00:00:34]

In downtown Birmingham[00:00:35]

Right away I brought me a through train ticket[00:00:38]

Ridin' across Mississippi clean[00:00:40]

And I was on that midnight flyer[00:00:43]

Out of Birmingham[00:00:45]

Smoking into New Orleans[00:00:46]

Somebody help me get out of Louisiana[00:00:49]

Just to help me get to Houston Town[00:00:51]

There are people there who care a little about me[00:00:54]

And they won't let the poor boy down[00:00:57]

Sure as you're born brought me a silk suit[00:01:14]

Put luggage in my hand[00:01:16]

And I woke up high over Alberquerque[00:01:19]

On a jet to the promised land[00:01:21]

Working on a T-bone steak a la carte[00:01:24]

Flying over to the golden state[00:01:27]

When the pilot told us in thirteen minutes[00:01:29]

He would set us at the terminal gate[00:01:32]

Swing low chariot come down easy[00:01:35]

Taxi to the terminal zone[00:01:37]

Cut your engines and cool your wings[00:01:40]

And let me make it to the telephone[00:01:42]

Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia[00:01:45]

Tidewater four ten o nine[00:01:48]

Tell the folks back home[00:01:50]

This is the promised land calling[00:01:51]

And the poor boy is on the line[00:01:53]

Right away I brought me a through train ticket[00:02:08]

Ridin' across Mississippi clean[00:02:10]

And I was on that midnight flyer[00:02:13]

Out of Birmingham[00:02:15]

Smoking into New Orleans[00:02:16]

Somebody help me get out of Louisiana[00:02:18]

Just to help me get to Houston Town[00:02:21]

There are people there who care a little about me[00:02:23]

And they won't let the poor boy down[00:02:26]

Sure as you're born brought me a silk suit[00:02:29]

Put luggage in my hand[00:02:31]

And I woke up high over Alberquerque[00:02:34]

On a jet to the promised land[00:02:36]

Working on a T-bone steak a la carte[00:02:39]

And let me make it to the telephone[00:02:57]

Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia[00:03:00]

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 boy is on the line[00:03:08]
