[00:11.380]Left my home in Norfolk, Virginia California on my mind
[00:18.784]Straddled that Greyhound and rode it into Raleigh and on across Caroline
[00:26.158]We stopped in Charlotte
[00:27.297]But we bypassed Rockhill we never was a minute late
[00:33.275]We were ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown
[00:37.423]Rolling out of Georgia state
[00:40.802]Had some motor trouble that turned into a struggle half way 'cross Alabam
[00:48.253]That hound broke and left us all stranded in downtown Birmingham
[00:55.715]So right away I bought me a through train ticket right across Mississippi clean
[01:02.800]And I was on that Special Flyer out of Birmingham smoking into New Orleans
[01:27.320]Someone's got to help me get out of Louisiana
[01:30.399]Just to help me get to Houston town
[01:34.527]There's an uncle there who cares a little about me
[01:37.967]And he won't let the poor boy down
[01:42.125]Sure as you're born
[01:43.675]He bought me a silk suit
[01:45.971]Put some luggage in my hand
[01:49.060]And I woke up high over Albuquerque on a jet to the Promised Land
[01:57.118]Working on a T-Bone steak
[01:59.615]A la carte flying over to the Golden State
[02:04.008]When the pilot told us that in thirteen minutes
[02:07.771]He would have us at the terminal gate
[02:11.846]Swing down chariot
[02:13.816]Come down easy
[02:15.902]Taxi to the terminal dome
[02:19.598]Cut your engines
[02:21.193]And cool your wings and let me make it to the telephone
[02:26.914]Los Angeles give me Norfolk, Virginia tidewater four-ten-O-nine
[02:33.718]Tell the folks back home
[02:35.610]This is the Promised Land calling and the poor boy is on the line
