Left my home in Norfolk, Virginia 
 California on my mind 
 Straddled that Greyhound 
 And rode it into Raleigh 
 And on across Caroline 
 We stopped in Charlotte 
 But we bypassed Rockhill 
 We never was a minute late 
 We were ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown 
 Rolling out of Georgia state 
  
 Had some motor trouble 
 That turned into a struggle 
 Half way 'cross Alabam 
 That hound broke and left us 
 All stranded in downtown Birmingham 
  
 So right away I bought me a through train ticket 
 Right 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 about me 
 And he won't let the poor boy down 
  
 Sure as you're born 
 He bought me a silk suit 
 Put some luggage in my hand 
 And I woke up high over Albuquerque 
 On a jet to the Promised Land 
  
 Working on a T-Bone steak 
 A la carte 
 Flying over to the Golden State 
 When the pilot told us that in thirteen minutes 
 He would have us at the terminal gate 
  
 Swing down chariot 
 Come down easy 
 Taxi to the terminal dome 
 Cut your engines 
 And cool your wings 
 And let me make it to the telephone 
  
 Los Angeles give me Norfolk, Virginia 
 Tidewater four-ten-O-nine 
 Tell the folks back home 
 This is the Promised Land calling 
 And the poor boy is on the line
