The Browns - Detroit City lyrics

Your rating:
(I wanna go home, I wanna go home,)

(Oh, how I want to go home.)



Last night, I went to sleep in Detroit City,

And I dreamed about those cotton fields at home.

I dreamed about my mother,

Dear old papa, sister and brother,

I dreamed about that girl

Who's 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 fine.

But by day, I make the cars,

By night I make the bars,

If only they could read between the lines!



{Spoken}

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.

So, I just think I'll take my foolish pride,

And I'll put on a south bound freight and ride,

And go on back to the love ones,

The ones I left waitin' so far behind.



(Sang)

(I wanna go home, I wanna go home,)

(Oh, how I want to go home)...
