Detroit City Sözleri

Last night, I went to sleep in Detroit city,

I dreamed about those cotton fields of home,

I dreamed about my mother,

dear old papa, sister and brother,

I dreamed about that girl whose been waiting 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 that

I rode a freight train north to Detroit city,

and after all these years

I find that I've just been wasting my time,

You know what I'm gonna do,

I'm gonna take my foolish pride,

get it on a south bound freight and let it ride!

I'm gonna go back to the love ones,

the ones I left waiting so far behind

I wanna go home, yeah

I wanna go home,

oh how I want to go home,

can't you hear me,

I wanna go home,

Oh baby,

how I wanna go home,

oh how I wanna go home,

Somebody help me,

I wanna go home, I wanna go home,

Oh how I wanna go home!!!!
