Detroit City(from the Johnny Cash TV show) - Bobby Bare

I wanna go home I wanna go home

oh how I wanna go home

Last night I went to sleep in Detroit city

And I dreamed about those cottonfields and 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

Homefolks 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

Cause you know

I rode the 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 put it on a southbound freight and ride

And go on back to the loved ones the ones

That I left waitin' so far behind

I wanna go home I wanna go home

oh how I wanna go home

I wanna go home I wanna go home

oh how I wanna go home
