Текст песни Detroit City

(Mel Tillis - Danny Dill)

I wanna go home, I wanna go home
Oh Lord, I wanna go home.

Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
And I dreamed about those cottonfields and home
I dreamed about my mother, dear old papa, sister and brother
And I dreamed about the girl that's been waiting for so long.

I wanna go home, I wanna go home
Oh Lord, I wanna go home.

Now the homefolks think I'm big in Detroit City
From the letters that I write they think I'm just fine
By day I make the cars and by night I'm a making the bars
Lord, if only they could read between the lines.

As you know I rode a long black freight train way up north to Detroit City
But after all these years I find that, well, I've just been wastin' my time
But you know what I think, I'm gonna do folks, I'm gonna take my foolish pride
And put it on a Southbound freight and ride.

I wanna go home. I wanna go home
Oh Lord, I wanna go home...
