Promised Land - The Red Rocker's[00:00:00]

Oh yeah on[00:00:03]

I left my home in Norfolk Virginia[00:00:10]

California on my mind[00:00:12]

Straddled that greyhound[00:00:14]

Rode him past Raleigh[00:00:16]

On across Caroline[00:00:17]

We had motor trouble[00:00:19]

It turned into a struggle[00:00:21]

Half way 'cross Alabama[00:00:22]

And that 'hound broke down[00:00:24]

And left us all stranded[00:00:26]

In downtown Birmingham[00:00:27]

I bought me a through train ticket[00:00:29]

Ridin' 'cross Mississippi clean[00:00:31]

And I was on that midnight flier out of Birmingham[00:00:34]

Smoking into New Orleans[00:00:36]

Somebody help me get out of Louisiana[00:00:39]

Just help me get to Houston Town[00:00:41]

There's people there[00:00:44]

Who care a little 'bout me[00:00:45]

And they won't let the poor boy down[00:00:46]

Take[00:00:49]

Sure as you're born[00:01:02]

They bought me a silk suit[00:01:03]

Put luggage in my hands[00:01:05]

And I woke up high over Albuquerque[00:01:07]

On a jet to the promised land[00:01:09]

Workin' on a T-bone steak a la carte[00:01:12]

Flying over to the golden state[00:01:14]

Oh[00:01:17]

When the pilot told me us in thirteen minutes[00:01:17]

He was headin' at the terminal gate[00:01:19]

Swing low sweet chariot[00:01:22]

Come down easy[00:01:23]

Taxi to the terminal zone[00:01:24]

Cut your engines and cool your wings[00:01:27]

And let me make it to the telephone[00:01:29]

Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia[00:01:32]

Tidewater four ten o nine[00:01:34]

Tell the folks back home[00:01:37]

This is the promised land callin'[00:01:38]

And the poor boy's on the line[00:01:39]

Workin' on a T-bone steak a la carte[00:01:55]

Flying over to the golden state[00:01:57]

Oh[00:02:00]

When the pilot told me us in thirteen minutes[00:02:00]

He was headin' at the terminal gate[00:02:02]

Swing low sweet chariot[00:02:05]

Come down easy[00:02:06]

Taxi to the terminal zone[00:02:07]

Cut your engines and cool your wings[00:02:10]

And let me make it to the telephone[00:02:12]

Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia[00:02:15]

Tidewater four ten o nine[00:02:17]

Tell the folks back home[00:02:20]

This is the promised land callin'[00:02:21]

And the poor boy's on the line[00:02:22]

Yeah yeah yeah[00:02:29]
