《City Of New Orleans》歌词

[00:00:00] City Of New Orleans - Johnny Cash

[00:00:07] Ridin' on the City of New Orleans

[00:00:12] Illinois Central Monday mornin' rail

[00:00:19] 15 cars & 15 restless riders

[00:00:25] Three conductors and 24 sacks of mail

[00:00:32] All along the southbound odyssey the train rolls out of Kankakee

[00:00:38] And moves along past houses farms & fields

[00:00:45] Passin' trains that have no name and switch yards full of old black men

[00:00:51] And graveyards of rusted automobiles

[00:00:58] Good mornin' America how are you

[00:01:04] Say don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:01:09] I'm a train they call the City of New Orleans

[00:01:16] I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done

[00:01:26] Dealin' cards with the old men in the club car

[00:01:33] Penny a point and nobody's keepin' score

[00:01:39] Hey now pass the paper bag that holds the bottle

[00:01:45] And feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor

[00:01:52] And the sons of Pullman porters & the sons of engineers

[00:01:58] Ride their daddys' magic carpet made of steel

[00:02:04] Mothers with their babes asleep rockin' to the gentle beat

[00:02:11] And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel

[00:02:18] Good mornin' America how are you

[00:02:23] Say don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:02:29] I'm a train they call the City of New Orleans

[00:02:36] I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done

[00:03:09] Night time on the City of New Orleans

[00:03:15] Changin' cars in Memphis Tennessee

[00:03:21] Halfway home we'll be there by mornin'

[00:03:27] Thru the Mississippi darkness rollin' down to the sea

[00:03:34] And all the towns & people seem to fade into a bad dream

[00:03:40] And the steel rail still ain't heard the news

[00:03:46] The conductor sings his song again

[00:03:49] "The passengers will please refrain:

[00:03:53] This train has got the disappearin' railroad blues"

[00:03:59] Good mornin' America how are you

[00:04:05] Say don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:04:11] I'm a train they call the City of New Orleans

[00:04:18] I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done
