《City Of New Orleans(Live at CBS Records Convention， Nashvil)》歌词

[00:00:01] City Of New Orleans - Johnny Cash

[00:00:19] Ridin' on the City of New Orleans

[00:00:25] Illinois Central Monday mornin' rail

[00:00:31] 15 cars & 15 restless riders

[00:00:36] Three conductors and 24 sacks of mail

[00:00:43] All along the southbound odyssey the train rolls out of Kankakee

[00:00:49] And moves along past houses farms & fields

[00:00:55] Passin' trains that have no name and switch yards full of old black men

[00:01:01] And graveyards of rusted automobiles

[00:01:08] Good mornin' America how are you

[00:01:13] Say don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:01:19] I'm a train they call the City of New Orleans

[00:01:25] I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done

[00:01:32] Dealin' cards with the old men in the club car

[00:01:37] Penny a point and nobody's keepin' score

[00:01:43] Hey now pass the paper bag that holds the bottle

[00:01:49] And feel the wheels rumblin' 'neath the floor

[00:01:55] And the sons of Pullman porters & the sons of engineers

[00:02:02] Ride their daddys' magic carpet made of steel

[00:02:07] Mothers with their babes asleep rockin' to the gentle beat

[00:02:14] And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel

[00:02:20] Good mornin' America how are you

[00:02:26] Say don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:02:31] I'm a train they call the City of New Orleans

[00:02:37] I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done

[00:02:44] Night time on the City of New Orleans

[00:02:50] Changin' cars in Memphis Tennessee

[00:02:56] Halfway home we'll be there by mornin'

[00:03:02] Thru the Mississippi darkness rollin' down to the sea

[00:03:08] And all the towns & people seem to fade into a bad dream

[00:03:14] And the steel rail still ain't heard the news

[00:03:20] The conductor sings his song again

[00:03:23] "The passengers will please refrain:

[00:03:26] This train has got the disappearin' railroad blues"

[00:03:33] Good mornin' America how are you

[00:03:38] Say don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:03:43] I'm a train they call the City of New Orleans

[00:03:49] I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done

[00:03:56] I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done
