(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)...
