Detroit |
| Readin' and writin' on Route 23 |
| It’s hard to believe we’ve made it this far |
| So come on boys and grab your coats |
| Detroit’s waitin' so get in the car |
| Well the wind it blows cold but the girls are on fire |
| They say they’re the prettiest things you have seen |
| And I ain’t a gambler but I’d bet the farm |
| That Detroit’s a gold mine waiting for me |
| The sidewalks are always jammed in this town |
| I feel like a dam that’s about to cut loose |
| And the girls they say, will treat you fine |
| Beg for your silver 'til you can’t refuse |
| And I’d love to go back to the hills where I was born |
| Instead of workin' on cars that I can’t afford |
| My pockets are empty my patience is torn |
| Oh look what’s become of me |
| Mama I’m writin' to tell you I’m fine |
| I’m workin' real hard and I pray every night |
| So don’t you worry I’m happy and free |
| Detroit’s been like a blessing to me |
