The Promised Land (Live At Winterland, San Francisco, CA 10/16-20/74) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)[00:00:00]

Written by：Chuck Berry[00:00:04]

I left my home in Norfolk Virginia[00:00:07]

California on my mind[00:00:10]

I straddled that Greyhound and rode him past Raleigh[00:00:13]

And on across Caroline[00:00:15]

We stopped at Charlotte we by passed Rockhill[00:00:19]

We never was a minute late[00:00:21]

We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown[00:00:24]

Rollin' 'cross Georgia State[00:00:27]

We had motor trouble that turned into a struggle[00:00:31]

Half way across Alabam'[00:00:33]

And that 'hound broke down and left us all stranded[00:00:36]

In downtown Birmingham[00:00:39]

Right away I bought me a through train ticket[00:01:07]

Ridin' 'cross Mississippi clean[00:01:09]

And I was on the midnight flyer out of Birmingham[00:01:12]

Smokin' into New Orleans[00:01:16]

Somebody help me get out of Louisiana[00:01:18]

Just help me get to Houston town[00:01:21]

There are people there who care a little 'bout me[00:01:24]

And they won't let the poor boy down[00:01:28]

Sure as you're born they bought me a silk suit[00:01:30]

They put luggage in my hand[00:01:33]

And I woke up high over Albuquerque[00:01:36]

On a jet to the promised land[00:01:39]

Workin' on a T-bone steak a la carte[00:02:05]

Flyin' over to the Golden State[00:02:08]

When the pilot told us in thirteen minutes[00:02:12]

We'd be headed in the terminal gate[00:02:14]

Swing low sweet chariot come down easy[00:02:17]

Taxi to the terminal zone[00:02:20]

Cut your engines and cool your wings[00:02:23]

And let me make it to the telephone[00:02:26]

Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia[00:02:29]

Tidewater four ten-o-nine[00:02:31]

Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling[00:02:35]

And the poor boy is on the line[00:02:38]
