《Promised Land》歌词

[00:00:00] Promised Land (Live At Cow Palace, Daly City, CA, March 23, 1974) - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)

[00:00:02] Written by：Chuck Berry

[00:00:04] Left my home in Norfolk

[00:00:06] Virginia California on my mind

[00:00:10] Straddled that Greyhound

[00:00:11] It rode me past Raleigh and on across Caroline

[00:00:15] Stopped in Charlotte and bypassed Rock Hill

[00:00:18] And we never was a minute late

[00:00:21] And we was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown

[00:00:25] Rolling across the Georgia state

[00:00:27] Where the motor trouble it turned into a struggle

[00:00:30] Half way across Alabama

[00:00:33] Bound broke down

[00:00:35] And left us all stranded in downtown Birmingham

[00:01:04] Was straight off bought me a through train your ticket

[00:01:06] Right across Mississippi clean

[00:01:09] And I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham

[00:01:13] Smoking into New Orleans

[00:01:16] Oh somebody help me get out of Louisiana

[00:01:19] Just help me get to Houston town

[00:01:22] Was people there who care a little about me

[00:01:25] And they won't let the poor boy down

[00:01:28] Was sure as bore me bought me a silk suit

[00:01:31] Put luggage in my hands

[00:01:34] And I woke up high over Albuquerque

[00:01:37] On a jet to the promised land

[00:02:16] Working on a T-bone steak a la carte

[00:02:19] Flying over to the Golden State

[00:02:22] When the pilot told us in thirteen minutes

[00:02:25] We'd be heading in the terminal gate

[00:02:28] Swing low sweet chariot come down easy

[00:02:31] Taxi to the terminal zone

[00:02:34] Oh cut your engines cool your wings

[00:02:37] And let me make it to the telephone

[00:02:40] Los Angeles give me Norfolk Virginia

[00:02:43] Tidewater four ten oh nine

[00:02:46] Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling

[00:02:49] And the poor boy's on the line
