Left my home in Norfolk, Virginia,

I straddled that Greyhound, rode him into Raleigh,

We stopped in Charlotte but bypassed Rock Hill,

and we never was a minute late

We was ninety miles out of Atlanta by sundown,

rollin' out of Georgia state
[Verse]

Right away, I bought me a through-train ticket,
F
right 'cross Mississippi clean
G
And I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham
C
smoking into New Orleans
C
Somebody help me get out of Louisiana
F
just to help me get to Houston Town
G
There are people there who care a little about me
C
and they won't let the poor boy down

Working on a T-bone steak a la carte

taxi to the terminal zone
G
Cut your engines and cool your wings
C
and let me make it to the telephone

half way 'cross Alabam,

in downtown Birmingham
