《City of New Orleans》歌词

[00:00:00] City of New Orleans - Done Again (又一次乐队)

[00:00:06] Riding on the city of new orleans

[00:00:13] Illinios central monday morning rail

[00:00:20] 15 cars and 15 restless riders

[00:00:26] 3 conductors and 25 sacks of mail

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

[00:00:36] The train pulls out of kankakee

[00:00:39] Rolls along past houses farms and fields

[00:00:46] Passing trains that have no name

[00:00:49] Freight yards full of old black men

[00:00:52] The graveyards of the rusted automobiles

[00:00:59] Good morning america how are you

[00:01:05] Saying don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:01:11] I'm the train they call the city of new orleans

[00:01:18] I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done

[00:01:29] Dealing cards with the old men in the club car

[00:01:36] Penny a point ain't no one keeping score

[00:01:41] Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle

[00:01:48] Feel the wheels a rumbling neath the floor

[00:01:54] And the sons of pullman porters

[00:01:57] And the sons of engineers

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

[00:02:08] And mothers with their babes asleep

[00:02:11] Rockin to the gentle beat

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

[00:02:21] Good morning america how are you

[00:02:27] Saying don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:02:33] I'm the train they call the city of new orleans

[00:02:40] I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done

[00:02:50] Nightime on the city of new orleans

[00:02:57] Changing cars in memphis tennessee

[00:03:03] Halfway home and well be there by morning

[00:03:10] Through the mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea

[00:03:16] But all the towns and people seem

[00:03:20] To fade into a bad dream

[00:03:23] And the steel rails still ain't heard the news

[00:03:29] The conductor sings his song again

[00:03:33] The passengers will please refrain

[00:03:36] This train has got the disappearing railroad blues

[00:03:43] Good night america how are you

[00:03:49] Saying don't you know me I'm your native son

[00:03:55] I'm the train they call the city of new orleans

[00:04:02] I'll be gone 500 miles when the day is done
