Detroit City

Detroit City (底特律市) - Tom Jones

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

And I dreamed about the 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 just fine

Yes they do

But by day I make the cars

And by night I make the bars

If only they could read between the lines

'Cause 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

You know what I'm gonna do

I'm gonna take my foolish pride

Get it on a southbound freight and let it ride

I'm gonna go back to the loved ones

The ones I left waiting so far behind

I wanna go home yeah

I wanna go home

Oh how I wanna go home

Can't you hear me

I wanna go home

Whoa baby I wanna go home

Oh how I wanna go home

Somebody help me

I wanna go home yeah

I wanna go home whoa oh

Oh how I wanna go home
