ELast night I went to sleep in Detroit City,
and I dreamed about those cotton fields at homeA.
I dreamed about my mother,
dear old PaEpa, Sister and brother,
I dreamedF# about that girl
who's been waitB7ing for so long.
I wanna go homeE, I wanna go home, A
B7 oh, how I wanna go home!E
HEome, folks think I'm big in Detroit City.
From the letters that I write, they think I'm fAine.
But by day, I make the cars,
and by Enight I make the bars,
If oF#nly they could read between the lineB7s!
[Spoken]
YEou know,
I rode a freight train north to Detroit City.
After all these years,
I find that I've just been wastin' myA time.
So I just think I'll take my foolish pride,
put on a Esouth bound freight and ride,
Goin' bF#ack to the love ones,
The ones I leftB7 waitin' so far behind.
I wanna go homEe, I wanna go homeA,
B7 oh, how I want to go hoEme.
