sweet home Chicago

[Patrick Courts]

although this is not directly related to this listserv, some of you may
either know the answer to my question or know where I might find it.  In
the song Sweet Home Chicago is, Robert Johnson sings that he is "going back
to California, to my sweet home Chicago." does anyone know how California
fits in to the sense of the song?
