Detroit City

Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
I dreamed about them cotton fields of home
I dreamed about my mother, dear old pappy, sister and brother
And I dreamed about the girl who’s been waitin' for so long
I wanna go home
I wanna go home
Oh, how I wanna go home
Home folks think I’m big in Detroit City
From the letters that I write they think I’m just fine, yes they do But by day I make the cars and by night I make the bars
If only they could read between the lines
SPOKEN
[ 'cause you know I rode a freight train north to Detroit City
And after all these years I find I’ve just been wastin' my time
You know what I’m gonna do?
I’m gonna take my foolish pride
Get it on a southbound freight and let it ride
I’m gonna go back to the loved ones
The ones I left waiting so far behind]
I wanna go home, yeah
I wanna go home
Oh, how I wanna go home
I wanna go home
Whoa, baby I wanna go home
Oh, how I wanna go home
I wanna go home, yeah
I wanna go home, whoa oh Oh, how I wanna go home
