[Verse 1]
C5
I left my home in Norfolk Virginia,
F5
California on my mind.
G5
We straddled that Greyhound, rode him into Raleigh,
C5
On across Caroline.
[Verse 2]
C5
We stopped at Charlotte and bypassed Rock Hill,
F5
We never was a minute late.
G5
And we was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown,
C5
Rollin' outa Georgia state.
[Verse 3]
C5
We had motor trouble it turned into a struggle,
F5
Half way 'cross Alabam,
G5
When that 'hound broke down and left us all stranded
C5
In downtown Birmingham.
