Say don't you know me, I'm your native son I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans And I'll be gone five-hundred miles when the day is done Dealin' cards with the old men in the club car Penny a point ain't no one keepin' score Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle Feel the wheels grumblin' 'neath the floor And the sons of Pullman porters, and the sons of engineers Ride their father's magic carpet made of steel Mothers with their babes asleep, rockin' to the gentle beat And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel Good morning America, how are you? Say don't you know me, I'm your native son I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans I'll be gone five-hundred miles when the day is done Night time on the City of New Orleans Changin' cars in Memphis, Tennessee Halfway home, we'll be there by mornin' Thru the Mississippi darkness rollin' down to the sea But all the towns and people seem to fade into a bad dream And the steel rails still ain't heard the news The conductor sings his songs again The passengers will please refrain This train has got the disappearin' railroad blues. Goodnight America, how are you? Say don't you know me, I'm your native son I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans I'll be gone five-hundred miles when the day is done Related Lyrics Random lyrics: Seven Spanish Angels, Slow Movin Outlaw, Texas On A Saturday Night, They All Went To Mexico, Angel Flying Too Close To The Ground, Blue Eyes Crying In The Rain, My Heroes Have Always Been Cowboys, Nothing I Can Do About It Now, On The Road Again, Ole Buttermilk Sky, Spanish Eyes, The Song From Moulin Rouge (Where Is Your Heart), Twilight Time, Faded Love, Good Hearted Woman, Heartbreak Hotel, Help Me Make It Through the Night, If You Could Touch Her at All, Mamas Dont Let Your Babies Grow up to Be Cowboys, Remember Me, Stay A Little Longer, Till I Gain Control Again, Uncloudy Day, Are There Any More Real Cowboys, Forgiving You Was Easy, Highwayman, How Do You Feel About Foolin Around, Im Movin On, In The Jailhouse Now, Its Not Supposed to Be That Way, Little Old Fashioned Karma, Me & Paul, My Own Peculiar Way, Night Life, Nobody Slides, My Friend, Old Friends, Summertime, Take It To The Limit, The Partys Over, There Is No Easy Way (But There Is a Way), Time Of The Preacher, To All The Girls Ive Loved Before, Whiskey River, Wholl Buy My Memories?, Can I Sleep in Your Arms?, Denver, Hands On The Wheel, I Couldnt Believe It Was True, Red-Headed Stranger, Thats the Way Love Goes, Other Nelson Willie song Lyrics Across The Borderline Lyrics Blue Eyes Crying in the Rain Lyrics Ive Loved You All over the World Lyrics On The Road Again Lyrics Somebody Pick up My Pieces Lyrics These Lonely Nights Lyrics To All The Girls Ive Loved Before Lyrics To All the Girls Ive Loved Before Lyrics Whiskey River Lyrics A Whiter Shade Of Pale Lyrics Always On My Mind Lyrics ...Show All Other Artists Nemesea Lyrics Nemesis 66 Lyrics Nemorin Lyrics Nena Lyrics Nena & Kim Wilde Lyrics Nena - 99 Red Balloons Lyrics Nena-99 Red Balloons Lyrics Neneh And Eagle Eye Cherry Lyrics Cherry Neneh Lyrics Neneh Cherry Lyrics All lyrics are property and copyright of their owners and are strictly for educational purposes only. lyricstrue.net Copyright © 2005-2007 All Rights Reserved., , Privacy policy
