Promised Land - Elvis Presley[00:00:01]

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

California on my mind[00:00:13]

I straddled that Greyhound[00:00:16]

And rode on into Raleigh[00:00:17]

And on across Caroline[00:00:18]

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

Halfway across Alabam[00:00:23]

Well 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[00:00:34]

And 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 to 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[00:00:50]

Sure as your born they bought me a silk suit[00:01:07]

Put luggage in my hand[00:01:10]

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

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

Working on a T-bone steak a la carte[00:01:18]

Flying over to the golden state[00:01:20]

Ah when the pilot told us in thirteen minutes[00:01:22]

He would set us at the terminal gate[00:01:25]

Swing low chariot come down easy[00:01:28]

Taxi to the terminal zone[00:01:30]

Cut your engines and cool your wings[00:01:33]

And let me make it to the telephone[00:01:36]

Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia[00:01:39]

Tidewater four ten o nine[00:01:41]

Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling[00:01:44]

And the poor boy is on the line[00:01:47]

Right away I brought me a through train ticket[00:02:01]

Ridin' across Mississippi clean[00:02:04]

And I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham[00:02:06]

Smoking into New Orleans[00:02:09]

Somebody help me get out of Louisiana[00:02:12]

Just to help me get to Houston Town[00:02:14]

There are people there who care a little about me[00:02:17]

And they won't let the poor boy down[00:02:19]

Sure as your born they bought me a silk suit[00:02:22]

Put luggage in my hand[00:02:25]

And I woke up high over Albuquerque[00:02:27]

On a jet to the promised land[00:02:30]

Working on a T-bone steak a la carte[00:02:33]

Flying over to the golden state[00:02:35]

And let me make it to the telephone[00:02:51]

And the poor boy is on the line[00:03:01]
