Orange Blossom Special (Bear’s Sonic Journals: Live At The Carousel Ballroom, April 24 1968) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
Well, I'm going down to Florida
And get some sand in my shoes
Or maybe Californy
And get some sand in my shoes
I'll ride that Orange Blossom Special
And lose these New York blues

[Instrumental Break]

[Interlude]
"Hey, say man, when you going back to Florida?"
"When am I goin' back to Florida? I don't know, don't reckon I ever will."
"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."
[Verse 3]
Hey talk about a-ramblin'
She's the fastеst train on the line
Talk about a-travellin'
Shе's the fastest train on the line
It's that Orange Blossom Special
Rollin' down the seaboard line

[Instrumental Outro]
