Detroit City

Detroit City - Dean Martin (迪安·馬丁)

I want to go home

I want to go home

Oh how I want to go home

You know last night I went to sleep in Detroit city

And I dreamed about those cotton fields back 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 want to go home

I want to go home

Oh how I want to go home

Folks 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 wasting my time

So I just think

I'll take my foolish pride put on a southbound train and ride

And go on back to the loved ones the ones

I left there waiting so far behind

I want to go home

I want to go home

Oh how I want to go home

I want to go home

I want to go home

Oh how I want to go home
