City Of New Orleans - Steve Goodman[00:00:00]

Ridin' on the city of new orleans[00:00:01]

Illinois central monday mornin' rail[00:00:06]

Illionois fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders[00:00:11]

Three conductors twenty-five sacks of mail[00:00:17]

There are out on the southbound odyssey[00:00:22]

The train pulls out of kakakee[00:00:25]

And it rolls along past houses[00:00:28]

Farms and fields[00:00:30]

Passin' towns that have no name[00:00:33]

Freight yards full of old black men[00:00:36]

And the graveyards of rusted automobiles[00:00:38]

Say good morning america how are you[00:00:43]

Say don't you know me[00:00:49]

I'm your native son[00:00:51]

Yes I'm the train they call[00:00:54]

The city of new orleans[00:00:56]

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

When the day is done[00:01:02]

And I was dealin' cards with[00:01:05]

The old men in the club car[00:01:07]

It's penny a point ain't nobody keepin' score[00:01:11]

Won't you pass the paper bag that holds the bottle[00:01:16]

You can feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor[00:01:21]

And the sons of pullman porters[00:01:27]

And the sons of engineers[00:01:30]

Ride their daddy's magic carpet make of steel[00:01:32]

Mothers with their babes asleep[00:01:38]

Are rockin' to the gentle beat[00:01:40]

And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel[00:01:43]

Just saying good morning america how are you[00:01:48]

Say don't you know me[00:01:54]

I'm your native son[00:01:55]

I'm the train they call the city of new orleans[00:01:59]

I'll be gone five hundred miles[00:02:05]

When the day is done[00:02:07]

Nighttime on the city of new orleans[00:02:16]

Changin' cars in memphis tennessee[00:02:21]

Halfway home we'll be there by mornin'[00:02:27]

Thru the mississippi darkness[00:02:32]

Rollin' down to the sea[00:02:33]

But all the towns and people seem[00:02:38]

To fade into a bad dream[00:02:40]

And the steel rail still ain't heard the news[00:02:43]

The conductor sings that song again[00:02:48]

The passengers will please refrain[00:02:51]

This train's got the disappearin' railroad blues[00:02:54]

Just saying good morning america how are you[00:02:58]

Say don't you know me I'm your native son[00:03:04]

I'm the train they call the city of new orleans[00:03:09]

I'll be gone five hundred miles[00:03:15]

When the day is done[00:03:17]

Just saying good morning america how are you[00:03:20]

Say don't you know me I'm your native son[00:03:26]

I'm the train they call the city of new orleans[00:03:31]

I'll be gone long long time with that[00:03:37]
