David Hasselhoff - City Of New Orleans Lyrics
Riding on the City of New Orleans
Illinois Central Monday morning rail
Fifteen cars and fifteen restless riders
Three conductors and twenty five sacks of mail
The train pulls out of Kankakee
Rolls along past houses, farms and fields
Passin' towns that have no names
Freight yards full of old grey men
And the graveyards of the rusted automobiles
Singing good morning America, how are you?
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
Dealin' card 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 rumblin 'neath the floor
And the sons of the pullman porters
And the sons of the engineers
Ride their father's magic carpets made of steel
And the days are full of restless
And the dreams are full of memories
And the rhythm of the rails is all they feel
Singing good morning America, how are you?
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 before the day is done
Well, its twilight on the city of New Orleans
Talk about your pocketful of friends
Half way home and we'll be there by mornin'
No tomorrow waitin' round the bend
Singing good morning America, how are you?
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 before the day is done
Singing good night America, how are you?
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 before the day is done

Soooooo good!!!
very nice,well done David.
Very good song!
Hasselhoff has done real good on many cover songs.
Frankly, much better than I expected. People are always making fun of him, but he definitely sings better than a lot of musicians who sell better.
If I agree with you, it's a shame, that you do not value it as it deserves.
this is true and i agree :)
