Tom Jones - Detroit City Lyrics

Font:

Align:

Last night I went to sleep in detroit city,

And I dreamed about those cotton fields at home.

I dreamed about my mother,

Dear old papa, sister and brother,

I dreamed about that girl

Whos been waiting for so long.

I wanna go home, I wanna go home,

Oh, how I wanna go home!

Home, folks think Im big in detroit city.

From the letters that I write, they think Im fine.

But by day, I make the cars,

And by night I make the bars,

If only they could read between the lines!

[spoken]

You know,

I rode a freight train north to detroit city.

After all these years,

I find that Ive just been wastin my time.

So I just think Ill take my foolish pride,

Put on a south bound freight and ride,

Goin back to the love ones,

The ones I left waitin so far behind.

I wanna go home, I wanna go home,

Oh, how I want to go home
