More Info I left my home in Norfolk Virginia California on my mind
I straddled that Greyhound and rode him into Raleigh and on across Caroline
We stopped in Charlotte we by-passed Rock Hill we never was a minute late
We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown rollin' out of Georgia State
We had motor trouble that turn into a struggle halfway across Alabam
And that hound broke down and left us all stranded in downtown Birmingham
