Paragraph Lyric
I've been feelin' down in Atlanta
Immobile in Alabam
I'd rather be in traction
Than to be here where I am
Oh, you Georgia red clay
And green Virginia pines
I've got to make it home somehow
Before I lose my mind

So won't you carry me back to California
I've been on the road too long
Take me to the West Coast, daddy
And let me be where I belong

Hey now, Philly, you street city
Been down by the railroad track
I know you can be a sweet city
But I won't soon be back
Haystack towns and smokestack cities
Are nothin' I want to see
My own house on high ground
Is the only place I want to be

So won't you carry me back to California
I've been on the road too long
Take me to the West Coast, daddy
And let me be where I belong
I've been feelin' down in Atlanta   Immobile in Alabam   I'd rather be in traction   Than to be here where I am   Oh, you Georgia red clay   And green Virginia pines   I've got to make it home somehow   Before I lose my mind      So won't you carry me back to California   I've been on the road too long   Take me to the West Coast, daddy   And let me be where I belong      Hey now, Philly, you street city   Been down by the railroad track   I know you can be a sweet city   But I won't soon be back   Haystack towns and smokestack cities   Are nothin' I want to see   My own house on high ground   Is the only place I want to be      So won't you carry me back to California   I've been on the road too long   Take me to the West Coast, daddy   And let me be where I belong
