  • Promised land
  • (words & music by chuck berry)
  • 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 across alabam
  • And that hound broke down and left us all stranded
  • In downtown birmingham
  • Right away I brought me a through train ticket
  • Ridin across mississippi clean
  • And 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 about me
  • And they wont let the poor boy down
  • Sure as youre born brought me a silk suit
  • Put luggage in my hand
  • And I woke up high over alburquerque
  • On a jet to the promised land
  • Working on a t-bone steak a la carte
  • Flying over to the golden state
  • Ah when 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
  • Working on a t-bone steak a la carte
  • Flying over to the golden state
  • Ah when 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
