Hank Williams Jr. - Detroit City lyrics

I wanna go home, I wanna go home

Lord, how I want to go home

Last night I went to sleep in Detroit city

And I dreamed of those cotton fields and home

I dreamed about my mother, my papa, sister and brother

I dreamed about that girl who's been waitin' for so long

I want to go home, I want to go home

Lord, how I want to go home

Home folks 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

I wanna go home, I wanna go home

Lord, how I want to go home

I rode a freight train north to Detroit City

And after all these years I've found I'm wasting my time

So I'll take my foolish pride put her on a southbound freight and ride

Go on back to the loved ones I've left so far behind

I wanna go home, I wanna go home

Lord, how I want to go home

I wanna go home, I wanna go home

Lord, how I want to go home
