City Of New Orleans - Randy Scruggs[00:00:00]

Ridin' on the city of New Orleans[00:00:06]

Illinois Central Monday mornin' rail[00:00:11]

Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders[00:00:17]

Three conductors twenty-five sacks of mail[00:00:22]

Out on the southbound odyssey[00:00:28]

The train pulls out of Kakakee[00:00:31]

And it rolls along past houses [00:00:34]

Farms and fields[00:00:36]

Passin' towns that have no name[00:00:39]

Freight yards full of old black men[00:00:42]

And the graveyards of rusted automobiles[00:00:45]

Good morning America how are you [00:00:51]

Say don't you know me [00:00:56]

I'm your native son[00:00:58]

I'm the train they call[00:01:01]

The city of New Orleans[00:01:04]

I'll be gone five hundred miles[00:01:07]

When the day is done[00:01:10]

Dealin' card games with[00:01:16]

The old men in the club car[00:01:17]

Penny a point ain't nobody keepin' score[00:01:22]

Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle[00:01:28]

Feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor[00:01:33]

And the sons of pullman porters[00:01:39]

And the sons of engineers[00:01:41]

Ride their daddy's magic carpet make of steel[00:01:44]

Mothers with their babes asleep[00:01:50]

Are rockin' to the gentle beat[00:01:53]

And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel[00:01:55]

Good morning America how are you [00:02:02]

Say don't you know me [00:02:07]

I'm your native son[00:02:09]

I'm the train they call the city of New Orleans[00:02:12]

I'll be gone five hundred miles[00:02:18]

When the day is done[00:02:20]

Nighttime on the city of New Orleans[00:02:39]

Changin' cars in Memphis Tennessee[00:02:44]

Halfway home we'll be there by mornin'[00:02:50]

Thru the Mississippi darkness[00:02:55]

Rollin' down to the sea[00:02:57]

But all the towns and people seem[00:03:01]

To fade into a bad dream[00:03:04]

And the steel rail still ain't heard the news[00:03:06]

The conductor sings that song again[00:03:12]

The passengers will please refrain[00:03:15]

This train's got the disappearin' railroad blues[00:03:18]

Good morning America how are you [00:03:24]

Say don't you know me I'm your native son[00:03:29]

I'm the train they call the city of New Orleans[00:03:34]

I'll be gone five hundred miles[00:03:40]

When the day is done[00:03:43]
