Promised Land - Grateful Dead[00:00:00]

I left my home in Norfolk Virginia California on my mind[00:00:28]

Straddled that Greyhound it rode me past Raleigh[00:00:35]

And on across Caroline[00:00:37]

Stopped in Charlotte and bypassed Rock Hill[00:00:40]

We never was a minute late[00:00:43]

We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown[00:00:47]

Rolling cross the Georgia state[00:00:50]

We had motor trouble it turned into a struggle[00:00:53]

Half way across Alabam[00:00:56]

The ahound broke down left us all stranded[00:00:59]

In downtown Birmingham[00:01:02]

Well we straight off bought me a through train ticket[00:01:31]

Right across Mississippi clean[00:01:33]

And I was on the midnight flyer out of Birmingham[00:01:36]

Smoking into New Orleans[00:01:40]

Somebody help me get out of Louisiana[00:01:43]

Just help me get to Houston town[00:01:45]

People are there who care a little about me[00:01:49]

And they won't let the poor boy down[00:01:52]

Sure as she bore me she bought me a silk suit[00:01:55]

Put luggage in my hands[00:01:58]

And I woke up high over Albuquerque[00:02:01]

On a jet to the promised land[00:02:04]

Working on a Tbone steak a la carte[00:02:32]

Flying over to the Golden State[00:02:34]

When the pilot told us in thirteen minutes[00:02:38]

We'd be heading in the terminal gate[00:02:41]

Swing low sweet chariot come down easy[00:02:44]

Taxi to the terminal zone[00:02:47]

Cut your engines cool your wings[00:02:51]

And let me make it to the telephone[00:02:53]

Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia tide water four ten on nine[00:02:57]

Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling[00:03:03]

And the poor boy's on the line[00:03:06]
