[00:00:00] Promised Land - Chuck Berry

[00:00:01] Written by：Chuck Berry

[00:00:03] I left my home in Norfolk Virginia

[00:00:06] California on my mind

[00:00:08] Straddled that Greyhound rode him past Raleigh

[00:00:11] On across Caroline

[00:00:14] Stopped in Charlotte and bypassed rock hill

[00:00:17] And we never was a minute late

[00:00:19] We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown

[00:00:22] Rollin' 'cross the Georgia state

[00:00:25] We had motor trouble it turned into a struggle

[00:00:28] Half way 'cross Alabam

[00:00:31] And that 'hound broke down and left us all stranded

[00:00:33] In downtown Birmingham

[00:00:48] Straight off I bought me a through train ticket

[00:00:51] Ridin' 'cross Mississippi clean

[00:00:53] And I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham

[00:00:57] Smoking into New Orleans

[00:00:59] Somebody help me get out of Louisiana

[00:01:02] Just help me get to Houston town

[00:01:05] There's people there who care a little 'bout me

[00:01:08] And they won't let the poor boy down

[00:01:11] Sure as you're born they bought me a silk suit

[00:01:14] Put luggage in my hands

[00:01:16] And I woke up high over Albuquerque

[00:01:19] On a jet to the promised land

[00:01:34] Workin' on a T bone steak a la carte

[00:01:36] Flying over to the

[00:01:38] Golden State

[00:01:40] The pilot told me in thirteen minutes

[00:01:42] We'd be headin' in the terminal gate

[00:01:46] Swing low sweet chariot come down easy

[00:01:49] Taxi to the terminal zone

[00:01:51] Cut your engines cool your wings

[00:01:54] And let me make it to the telephone

[00:01:57] Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia

[00:02:00] Tidewater four ten O nine

[00:02:03] Tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'

[00:02:05] And the poor boy's on the line
