Here are the Lyrics ( 2 verses) :

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
All along the Southbound odyssey
The train pulls out of Kankakee
And rolls along past houses farms and fields
Passing trains that have no name
And freight-yards full of old black men
And graveyards full of rusted automobiles

Good morning America how are ya ?
Say, don't you know me ? I'm your native son
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
And I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done 
- - - - - - - -
It's night time on the City of New Orleans
Changing cars in Memphis Tennessee 
Half way home we'll be there by the morning
Through the Mississippi darkness rolling down to the sea
But all the towns and people seem to fade into a bad dream
And the steel rails still aint heard the news
The conductor sings his songs again
The Passengers will please refrain
This train has got the disappearing railroad blues 

Good morning America how are ya ?
Say, don't you know me ? I'm your native son
I'm the train they call the City of New Orleans
And I'll be gone five hundred miles when the day is done 
I'll be gone five hundred miles  ....  when the day is done
