I left my home in Norfolk Virginia
California on my mind
I straddled that Greyhound and rode into Raleigh and on across Caroline
We had motor trouble that turn into a struggle halfway 'cross Alabam'
That hound broke down and left us all stranded in downtown Birmingham
Right away I brought me a through train ticket ridin' 'cross Mississippi clean
Well I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham smoking into New Orleans
Somebody help me get out of Louisiana
Just to help me get to Houston Town
There are people there who care a little 'bout me
And they won't let the poor boy down
Play it boy hey
Sure as you're born brought me a silk suit put luggage in my hand
And I woke up high over Alberquerque on a jet to the promised land
Working on a T-bone steak a la carte flying over to the golden state
The pilot told us in thirteen minutes
He would set us at the terminal gate
Say the swing low chariot come down easy taxi to the terminal zone
Cut your engines and cool your wings
And let me make it to the telephone
Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia tidewater four ten o nine
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling
And the poor boy is on the line play it again
Working on a T-bone steak a la carte flying over to the golden state
The pilot told us in thirteen minutes
He would set us at the terminal gate
Swing low chariot come down easy taxi to the terminal zone
Cut your engines and cool your wings
And let me make it to the telephone
Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia tidewater four ten o nine
Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling and the poor boy is on the line
