《City of New Orleans(LP Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] City Of New Orleans(LP Version) - Judy Collin

[00:00:11] Riding on the City of New Orleans

[00:00:17] Illinois Central Monday morning rail

[00:00:22] Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders

[00:00:27] Three conductors and twenty five sacks of mail

[00:00:33] All along the southbound odyssey

[00:00:36] The train pulls out at Kankakee

[00:00:38] Rolls along past houses farms and fields

[00:00:44] Passing trains that have no names

[00:00:47] Freight yards full of old black men

[00:00:50] And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles

[00:00:55] Good morning America how are you

[00:01:01] Don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:01:06] I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans

[00:01:11] I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done

[00:01:18] Dealing cards with the old men in the club car

[00:01:23] Penny a point ain't no one keeping score

[00:01:29] Won't you pass the paper bag that holds the bottle

[00:01:34] Feel the wheels rumbling neath the floor

[00:01:40] And the sons of Pullman porters

[00:01:42] And the sons of engineers

[00:01:45] Ride their father's magic carpets made of steam

[00:01:51] Mothers with their babes asleep

[00:01:54] Are rocking to the gentle beat

[00:01:56] And the rhythm of the rails is all they dream

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

[00:02:07] Don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:02:13] I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans

[00:02:18] I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done

[00:02:46] Nighttime on The City of New Orleans

[00:02:52] Changing cars in Memphis Tennessee

[00:02:57] Half way home we'll be there by morning

[00:03:02] Through the Mississippi darkness

[00:03:04] Rolling down to the sea

[00:03:08] And all the towns and people seem

[00:03:11] To fade into a bad dream

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

[00:03:19] The conductor sings his song again

[00:03:22] The passengers will please refrain

[00:03:25] This train's got the disappearing railroad blues

[00:03:31] Good night America how are you

[00:03:36] Don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:03:41] I'm the train they call The City of New Orleans

[00:03:47] I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done
