[00:00.24]Detroit City - Bobby Bare [00:11.15]I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I wanna go home [00:24.49] [00:27.34]Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City [00:32.15] [00:34.70]And I dreamed about those cottonfields and home [00:40.26] [00:43.32]I dreamed about my mother dear old papa sister and brother [00:49.95] [00:51.13]I dreamed about that girl who's been waiting for so long [00:58.26]I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I wanna go home [01:11.99] [01:23.36]Homefolks think I'm big in Detroit City [01:28.10] [01:30.58]From the letters that I write they think I'm fine [01:35.70] [01:38.07]But by day I make the cars by night I make the bars [01:45.68] [01:46.75]If only they could read between the lines [01:52.38] [01:55.63]Cause you know I rode the freight train north to Detroit City [01:59.37] [02:02.19]And after all these years I find I've just been wastin' my time [02:06.76] [02:09.20]So I just think I'll take my foolish pride and put it on a Southbound freight and ride [02:15.29] [02:17.55]And go on back to the loved ones the ones that I left waitin' so far behind [02:23.93] [02:25.43]I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I wanna go home
