FabSwingers.com forum: Songs with American place names in their titles.

Putting the 'cum' in Eboracum

I'm looking at sorting an 'America' playlist and would like some tunes that refer to American places. List your favourite songs that have American place names in their titles. I'll start:

Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynyrd

(PS no group names, so Boston and America will be disqualified

)
