I wanna go home, I wanna go home Oh, how 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 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.
--- Instrumental ---
Homefolks 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.
`Cause you know I rode the 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 put it on a Southbound freight and ride. And go on back to the loved ones, the ones that I left waitin` so far behind.
I wanna go home, I wanna go home, Oh, how I wanna go home...
