Dean Martin - Detroit City lyric
Ringtone: Send Detroit City Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
(Mel Tillis - Danny Dill)
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 and 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 want to go home.
Homefolks think I'm big in Detroit city
From the letters 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.
You know I rode a freight train north to Detroit city
After all these years I find I've just been wastin' my time
So I just think I'll take my foolish pride put on a southbound freight and ride
And goin' back to the loved ones the ones I left there waiting so far behind.
I wanna go home
I wanna go home
Oh, how I want to go home.
I wanna go home
I wanna go home
Oh, how I want to go home.
(I wanna go home, oh, how I wanna go home...)
