Detroit City

Detroit City (底特律市) - Mel Tillis

I wanna go home

Oh how I wanna go home

I wanna 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 the girl

Who's been waiting for so long

I wanna go home 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

And by night I make the bars

If only they could read between the lines
