Lyrics " Detroit City "

Original text with translation

Detroit City

George Jones

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

I wanna go home

Whoa, baby I wanna go home

Oh, how I wanna go home

I wanna go home, yeah

I wanna go home, whoa oh Oh, how I wanna go home
