《Promised Land》歌词

[00:00:00] Promised Land - Luca Olivieri

[00:00:10] I left my home in Norfolk Virginia

[00:00:12] California on my mind

[00:00:15] I straddled that Greyhound

[00:00:16] And rode into Raleigh

[00:00:17] And on across Caroline

[00:00:19] We had motor trouble

[00:00:20] That turn into a struggle

[00:00:22] Halfway across Alabam'

[00:00:24] And that hound broke down

[00:00:25] And left us all stranded

[00:00:26] In downtown Birmingham

[00:00:29] Right away I brought me

[00:00:30] A through train ticket

[00:00:31] Ridin' across Mississippi clean

[00:00:34] And I was on that midnight flyer

[00:00:35] Out of Birmingham

[00:00:37] Smoking into New Orleans

[00:00:39] Somebody help me

[00:00:40] Get out of Louisiana

[00:00:41] Just to help me get to Houston Town

[00:00:44] There are people there

[00:00:44] Who care a little about me

[00:00:46] And they won't

[00:00:47] Let the poor boy down

[00:01:02] Sure as you're born

[00:01:03] Brought me a silk suit

[00:01:04] Put luggage in my hand

[00:01:07] And I woke up high over Alberquerque

[00:01:09] On a jet to the promised land

[00:01:12] Working on a T-bone steak a la carte

[00:01:14] Flying over to the golden state

[00:01:16] Ah when the pilot

[00:01:17] Told us in thirteen minutes

[00:01:19] He would set us at the terminal gate

[00:01:21] Swing low chariot come down easy

[00:01:24] Taxi to the terminal zone

[00:01:26] Cut your engines

[00:01:27] And cool your wings

[00:01:28] And let me make

[00:01:29] It to the telephone

[00:01:31] Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia

[00:01:33] Tidewater four ten o nine

[00:01:35] Tell the folks back home

[00:01:37] This is the promised land calling

[00:01:38] And the poor boy is on the line

[00:01:54] Working on a T-bone steak a la carte

[00:01:56] Flying over to the golden state

[00:01:58] Ah when the pilot

[00:01:59] Told us in thirteen minutes

[00:02:01] He would set us at the terminal gate

[00:02:03] Swing low chariot come down easy

[00:02:05] Taxi to the terminal zone

[00:02:08] Cut your engines

[00:02:09] And cool your wings

[00:02:10] And let me make

[00:02:11] It to the telephone

[00:02:13] Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia

[00:02:15] Tidewater four ten o nine

[00:02:17] Tell the folks back home

[00:02:18] This is the promised land calling

[00:02:20] And the poor boy is on the line
