"One Dime Blues" (Blind Lemon Jefferson) has the line:
"I was standing on East Cairo St. one day"

The Dillards recorded a song "The Old Home Place" with the line:
"I ran away to Charlottesville"

The Old 97s have a song "Stoned" with the line:
"Hitchhike to Rhome, take the Greyhound to Fredericksburg"

Bobbie Gentry, in the song "Okolona River Bottom Band" sings the line:
"All the way from the Kosciusko up from Biloxi shore"

and you already have Kingston taken care of, I think.
