Elvis Presley - Promised Land 1974 I left my home in Norfolk Virginia, California, in my mind I straddled that Greyhound and rode in Raleigh, and more on Caroline We had problems, the engine turned into a struggle Half Alabama "And the dog has collapsed, leaving us all stranded In downtown Birmingham Right away I brought me a ticket Ridin 'in Mississippi and was clean on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham Smoking into New Orleans Help me outLouisiana to help only to me, from Houston to arrive there are people who are a bit 'worried about me and will not allow that, bought the poor guy down Sure as she bore me, I have 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 the Golden State Ah when the pilot told us in 13 minutes would take us to the gate Swing Low down car simply put Taxi terminal zone Cut your enginesand cool your wings and let's put me on the telephone Los Angeles, Norfolk, Virginia Tidewater four ten or nine Tell the folks back home this is the Promised Land of Appeals and the poor boy is on the line
