Promised Land [Live - 8/27/72 Veneta, Oregon[00:00:00]

I left my home in Norfolk Virginia California on my mind[00:00:09]

Straddled that greyhound it rode me past Raleigh and on across Caroline[00:00:13]

Stopped in Charlotte and bypassed rock hill and we never was a minute late[00:00:19]

We was ninety miles out of atlanta by sundown rolling cross the Georgia state[00:00:25]

Had motor trouble it turned into a struggle half way cross alabam[00:00:31]

The hound broke down left us all stranded in downtown Birmingham[00:00:37]

Straight off bought me a through train ticket right across Mississippi clean[00:01:07]

And I was on the midnight flyer out of Birmingham[00:01:13]

Smoking into new Orleans[00:01:16]

Somebody help me get out of Louisiana[00:01:19]

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

People are there who care a little bout me[00:01:25]

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

Sure as she bore me she bought me a silk suit put luggage[00:01:31]

In my hands[00:01:34]

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

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

Working on a t bone steak a la care[00:02:06]

Flying over to the golden state[00:02:09]

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

Wed be heading in the terminal gate[00:02:15]

Swing low sweet chariot come down easy[00:02:18]

Taxi to the terminal zone[00:02:21]

Cut your engines cool your wings[00:02:24]

And let me make it to the telephone[00:02:27]

Los angeles give me Norfolk Virginia[00:02:30]

Tidewater four ten on nine[00:02:33]

Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling[00:02:36]

And the poor boys on the line[00:02:39]
