Текст песни Detroit City (feat. Billy Forrest) - Gene Rockwell feat. Billy Forrest

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 those cottonfields and home
I dreamed about my mother,
Dear old papa, sister and brother
An' I dreamed about that girl
Who's been waiting for so long

I wanna go home,
I wanna go home
Oh, how I wanna go home

Some 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 bars,
And by night I make the cars
If only they could read
Between the lines

'Cause you know
I rode a freight train north to Detroit City
And after all these years
I find I've just been wasting my time
So I think I'll just take my foolish pride
Put it on a Southbound freight and ride

And go back to the loved ones
The ones I left way so far behind

I wanna go home,
I wanna go home
Oh, how I wanna go home...
