l[C]eft my home in Norfolk, Virginia, California on my mind[F]
i s[G]tradled that grey hound and rode him into Raleigh and on across Caroline[C]
we stopped at Charlotte we bypassed rock hill we never was a minute late [F]
we was [G]ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown, rollin out of Georgia state[C]
we had motor trouble that turned into a struggle half way across alabam[F]
and that hound[G] broke down and left us all stranded in down town Birmingham[C]
