the browns - detroit city lyrics

Loading...

(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)…
