Riding on the City Of New Orleans Illinois Central, Monday morning rail Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders Three Conductors; twenty-five sacks of mail All along the southbound odyssey - the train pulls out of Kankakee And rolls along past houses, farms, and fields Passing trains that have no name, and freight yards full of old black men And the graveyards of the rusted automobileGood 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 doneDealing card games with the old man in the Club Car Penny a point - ain't no one keeping score Pass the paper bag that holds the bottle Feel the wheels rumbling 'neath the floor And the sons of Pullman Porters, and the sons of Engineers Ride their father's magic carpets made of steel And, mothers with their babes asleep rocking to the gentle beat And the rhythm of the rails is all they feelGood 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 doneNight time on the City Of New Orleans Changing cars in Memphis Tennessee Halfway home - we'll be there by morning Through the Mississippi darkness, rolling down to the sea But, all the towns and people seem to fade into a bad dream And the steel rail still ain't heard the news The conductor sings his songs again - the passengers will please refrain This train got the disappearing railroad bluesGood night, 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
