| Lyrics：Chuck Berry Music：Chuck Berry | |
| I left my home in Norfolk Virginia | |
| California on my mind | |
| I straddled that Greyhound | |
| And rode into Raleigh | |
| And on across Caroline | |
| 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 | |
| Right away I brought me a through train ticket | |
| Ridin' across Mississippi clean | |
| And I was on that midnight flyer out of Birmingham | |
| Smoking into New Orleans | |
| Somebody help me get out of Louisiana | |
| Just to help me get to Houston Town | |
| There are people there who care a little about me | |
| And they won't let the poor boy down | |
| Sure as you're born brought me a silk suit | |
| Put luggage in my hand | |
| And I woke up high over Alberquerque | |
| On a jet to the promised land | |
| Working on a T-bone steak a la carte | |
| Flying over to the golden state | |
| Ah when the pilot told us in thirteen minutes | |
| He would set us at the terminal gate | |
| Swing low chariot come down easy | |
| Taxi to the terminal zone | |
| 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 | |
| Working on a T-bone steak a la carte | |
| Flying over to the golden state | |
| Ah when the pilot told us in thirteen minutes | |
| He would set us at the terminal gate | |
| Swing low chariot come down easy | |
| Taxi to the terminal zone | |
| 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 |
