The Promised Land(Album Version) - Meat Loaf

The Promised Land (Album Version) - Meat Loaf (密特·劳弗)
I left my home in Norfolk Virginia California on my mind
I straddled that greyhound and rode him
Into raleigh and on across Caroline
I had motor trouble that turned into
A struggle halfway across Alabama
And that 'Hound broke down and left me
All stranded in downtown Birmingham
Right away I bought me a through train
Ticket ridin' across mississippi clean
And I was on the midnight flyer out of
Birmingham smokin' into new Orleans
Somebody helped me get out of Louisiana
Just to help me get to houston town
There are people there who care a little 'bout me
And they won't let a poor boy down
Sure as you're born they bought me a silk
Suit they put luggage in my hand
And I woke up high over albuquerque
On a jet to the promised land
Workin' on a tbone steak I had a party flyin'
Over to the golden state
When the pilot told me in thirteen minutes
He would get us at the terminal zone
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 4 10 09
And tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'
And the poor boy's on the line
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 4 10 09
And tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'
And the poor boy's on the line
And tell the folks back home this is the promised land callin'
And their big boy's on the line
