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 the cotton fields and 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

CHORUS

Homefolks think I'm big in Detroit City
from th eletters that I write they think I'm fine
but by day I make the cars and by night I make the bars
if they could only read between the lines

CHORUS

'Cause ytou know I rode a freight train northto Detroit City
and after all these years I find I've been wasting my time
so I think I'll take my foolish pride and put it on a 
south bound freight and ride and go back to th eloved ones 
the ones I left behind

CHORUS
