Bobby Bare - Detroit City 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 girlwho'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,and 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.After all these years,I find that I've just been wastin' my time.So I just think I'll take my foolish pride,put on a south bound freight and ride,Goin' back to the love ones,The ones I left waitin' so far behind.I wanna go home, I wanna go home,oh, how I want to go home.
