Detroit City

Bobby Bare
kar by Mike M (March 2000)

I wanna go home
I wanna go home
Oh, how I wanna go home

Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
I dreamed about them cotton fields of home
I dreamed about my mother, dear old pappy, sister and brother
And I dreamed about the girl who’s been waitin’ 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

I wanna go home
I wanna go home
Oh, how I wanna go home

Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
I dreamed about them cotton fields of home
I dreamed about my mother, dear old pappy, sister and brother
And I dreamed about the girl who’s been waitin’ 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

I wanna go home
I wanna go home
Oh, how I wanna go home
