Il testo della Detroit city

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
( guitar )
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 makin' 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
