Orange Blossom Special
Written by - Ervin T. Rouse & Chubby Wise
From - At Folsom Prison
Hey, look a yonder comin'
Comin' down that railroad track
Hey, look a yonder comin'
Comin' down that railroad track
It's the Orange Blossom Special
Bringin' my baby back

Going down to Florida
And get some sand in my shoes
Or maybe Californy
And get some sand in my shoes
Ride that Orange Blossom Special
And lose these New York blues

'Say man, when you going back to Florida?'
'Say I don't know
I don't reckon I'll ever go back to Florida'
'Well, ain't you worried about getting your nourishment in New York?'
'Well, I don't care if I do die do die do die do die'

Hey talk about a ramblin'
She's the fastest train on the line
Talk about a travellin'
She's the fastest train on the line
It's that Orange Blossom Special
Rollin' down the seaboard line
