B♭Riding on the CFity of NB♭ew Orleans
GmIllinois Central ME♭onday morning rB♭ail
B♭Fifteen cars and fFifteen restless rB♭iders
GmThree conductors and tFwenty-five sacks of mB♭ail.
GmAll along the south bound odyssey, Dmthe train pulls out of Kenkakee
FRolls along past houses farms and Cfields
GmPassing trains that have no name, fDmreight yards of old black men
FAnd graveyards of F7rusted automoB♭biles.


Chorus

        E♭Good morning AFmerica,B♭ how are you?
      SaGmy, don't you know me, I'E♭m your native sonB♭.
        B♭I'm a train they call the CFity of New OrlGmeans  G7
        I'll be gE♭one five hundred miFles when the day is dB♭one.


Verse

B♭Dealing card games with the oFld men in the club B♭car
GmPenny a point ain'E♭t noone keeping scoB♭re
B♭Pass the paper bFag but hold the bB♭ottle
GmFeel the wheels Frumbling 'neath the fB♭loor
GmAnd the sons of Pullman porters, and the Dmsons of engineers
FRide their father's magic carpets made of Csteel
GmMother with her babes asleep, rockiDmng to the gentle beat
FAnd the rhythm of the F7rails is all they fB♭eel.

      ::Chorus::
B♭Nightime on the FCity of New OrleB♭ans
GmChanging cars inE♭ Memphis, TennessB♭ee
B♭Half way home weF'll be there by mornB♭ing
Gmthrough the Mississippi Fdarkness rolling down to the B♭sea.
Gmand all the towns and people Dmseem to fade into a bad dream
FAnd the steel rail still ain't heard the Cnews
GmThe conductor sings his songs again, Dmthe passagers will please refrain
FThis train got the disF7appearing railroad blB♭ues.


Chorus

        E♭Good night AmeFrica, How aB♭re you?
        GmSay, don't you know me, E♭I'm your native sB♭on.
        B♭I'm the train they call the CiFty of New OrleGmans  G7
        I'll be E♭gone five hundred mFiles when the day is B♭done.
