Left my home in Norfolk, Virginia
California on my mind
Straddled that Greyhound and rode it into Raleigh
And all across Caroline

We stopped in Charlotte but we bypassed Rock Hill
We never was a minute late
We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown
Rolling out of Georgia state

Had some motor trouble
That turned into a struggle
Half way across Alabam
That hound broke down and left us all stranded
In downtown Birmingham

So right away I bought me a through train ticket
Ridin' across Mississippi clean
And I was on that Special Flyer out of Birmingham
Smoking into New Orleans

Someone's got to help me get out of Louisiana
Just to help me get to Houston town
There's an uncle there who cares a little 'bout me
And he won't let the poor boy down
