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.
"Kathy," I said as we boarded a Greyhound in Pittsburgh "Michigan seems like a dream to me now" It took me four days to hitchhike from Saginaw I've gone to look for America
Morning has broken Like the first morning Blackbird has spoken Like the first bird Praise for the singing Praise for the morning praise for them springing fresh from the word....
Please lock me away And don't allow the day Here inside where I hide With my loneliness I don't care what they say I won't stay In a world without love
Mama's got a squeeze box She wears on her chest And when daddy comes home He never gets no rest 'Cause she's playing all night And the music's all right Mama's got a squeeze box Daddy never sleeps at night
There's a storm across the valley, clouds are rollin' in The afternoon is heavy on your shoulders There's a truck out on the four lane, a mile or more away The whinin' of his wheels just makes it colder.
Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane I can see the red tail lights Heading for Spain I can see Daniel waving Goodbye Well it looks like Daniel Must be the clouds on my eyes..
