[00:00.000]Promised Land - Grateful Dead (感恩而死)
[00:02.040]Written by：Chuck Berry
[00:04.090]I left my home in Norfolk Virginia California on my mind
[00:10.038]Straddled that greyhound it rode me past raleigh
[00:12.707]And on across caroline
[00:15.787]Stopped in charlotte and bypassed rock hill
[00:18.676]And we never was a minute late
[00:21.395]We was ninety miles out of atlanta by sundown
[00:24.714]Rollin' 'cross the Georgia State
[00:27.644]We had motor trouble it turned into a struggle
[00:30.344]Half way 'cross Alabam
[00:33.362]The 'hound broke down left us all stranded in downtown Birmingham
[01:02.798]Straight off bought me a through train ticket
[01:05.328]Right across Mississippi clean
[01:08.197]And I was on the midnight flyer out of Birmingham
[01:11.475]Smoking into New Orleans
[01:14.462]Somebody help me get out of Louisiana
[01:17.252]Just help me get to houston town
[01:20.322]People are there who care a little 'bout me
[01:22.982]And they won't let the poor boy down
[01:26.161]Sure as she bore me she bought me a silk suit
[01:28.901]Put luggage in my hands
[01:32.030]And I woke up high over Albuquerque
[01:34.399]On a jet to the promised land
[02:01.255]Workin' on a t-bone steak a la carte
[02:03.695]Flying over to the golden state
[02:06.994]When the pilot told us in thirteen minutes
[02:09.664]We'd be headin' in the terminal gate
[02:12.904]Swing low sweet chariot come down easy
[02:15.763]Taxi to the terminal zone
[02:18.883]Cut your engines cool your wings
[02:21.563]And let me make it to the telephone
[02:24.723]Los angeles give me Norfolk Virginia
[02:27.373]Tidewater four ten on nine
[02:30.573]Tell the folks back home this is the promised land calling'
[02:33.623]And the poor boy's on the line
