[00:00:00] City of New Orleans (In the Style of Willie Nelson) (Demo Vocal Version) - ProSource Karaoke (专业卡拉ok)

[00:00:07] Riding on the City of New Orleans

[00:00:13] Illinois Central Monday morning rail

[00:00:19] Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders

[00:00:25] Three conductors and twenty-five sacks of mail

[00:00:32] All along the southbound odyssey

[00:00:35] The train pulls out at Kankakee

[00:00:38] And rolls along past houses farms and fields

[00:00:45] Passin' trains that have no names

[00:00:48] And freight yards full of old black men

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

[00:00:58] Good morning America how are you

[00:01:03] See don't you know me I'm your native son

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

[00:01:16] And I'll be gone five hundred miles

[00:01:19] When the day is done

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

[00:01:33] Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score

[00:01:39] Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle

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

[00:01:51] And the sons of pullman porters

[00:01:54] And the sons of engineers

[00:01:58] Ride their father's magic carpets made of steel

[00:02:05] Mothers with their babes asleep are rockin'

[00:02:08] To the gentle beat

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

[00:02:18] Good morning America how are you

[00:02:24] See don't you know me I'm your native son

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

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

[00:03:09] Nighttime on The City of New Orleans

[00:03:15] Changing cars in Memphis Tennessee

[00:03:22] Half way home we'll be there by morning

[00:03:28] Through the Mississippi darkness rolling

[00:03:30] Down to the sea

[00:03:34] But all the towns and people seem to fade

[00:03:38] Into a bad dream

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

[00:03:47] The conductor sings his song again

[00:03:50] The passengers will please refrain

[00:03:53] This train's got the disappearing railroad blues

[00:04:00] Good morning America how are you

[00:04:06] See don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:04:12] I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans

[00:04:19] I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
