The Promised Land |
Riding down to Memphis on a cold and dusty train |
I got nothing in my pockets |
All I own is just my name |
Feeling kinda hungry |
And my clothes look awful bad |
But I gotta go see my baby |
And I’m gonna be mighty glad |
To get back to the promised land |
Yeah, got to make it any way I can |
Just got to taste that milk and honey |
One more time |
She’s gonna take me by the hand |
Make me feel like a newborn man |
When I get back to my baby |
In the promised land |
I thumbed a ride to Frisco |
Hopped a train to Santa Fe |
Cause every morning there’s a memory |
Keeps me moving on my way |
Now this special place I’m going |
Someone’s waiting there for me |
And it’s worth it all just knowing |
Just how good it’s a gonna be |
To get back to the promised land |
Yeah, got to make it any way I can |
Just got to taste that milk and honey |
One more time |
She’s gonna take me by the hand |
Make me feel like a newborn man |
When I get back to my baby |
In the promised land |
