tom jones - detroit city lyrics
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 long
i wanna go home
i wanna go home
oh, how i wanna go home
home 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 pride
get 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]
i wanna go home, yeah
i wanna go home
oh, how i wanna go home
[can? t you hear me?]
i wanna go home
whoa, baby i wanna go home
oh, how i wanna go home
[somebody help me]
i wanna go home, yeah
i wanna go home, whoa oh
oh, how i wanna go home
fade hmm, i wanna go home
