Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
I dreamed about them cotton fields of home
I dreamed about my mother, dear old pappy, sister and brother
And I dreamed about the girl who's been waitin for so longI wanna go home
I wanna go home
Oh, how I wanna go homeHome 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
SPOKEN
[? 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 prideGet 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]

Oh, how I wanna go home
I wanna go home
Whoa, baby I wanna go home
Oh, how I wanna go home

Oh, how I wanna go home
