Detroit City
Bobby Bare
(E) I want to go home; I want to go (A) home,
(E) Oh how, I (B7) want to go (E) home,
Last night I went to (B7) sleep in Detroit (E) city,
And I dreamed about those (B7) cotton fields and (E) home,
I (A) dreamed about my mother, dear old (E) papa, sister and brother,
And I (F#) dreamed about that girl, whose been (B7) waitin' for so long,
I want to go (E) home, I want to go (A) home,
(E) Oh how, I (B7) want to go (E) home,
Home folks think I'm (B7) big in Detroit (E) city,
From the (B7) letters that I write they think I'm (E) fine,
But by (A) day I make the cars, by (E) night I make the bars,
If (F#) only they could read between the (B7) lines,
SPOKEN:
(E) I rode a freight train (B7) north to Detroit (E) city,
After all these years I've been (B7) wasting my (E) time,
I'll (A) take my foolish pride, put it on a (E) southbound freight and ride,
Go on (F#) back to the ones, I've left (B7) waitin' so far behind,
I want to go (E) home, I want to go (A) home,
(E) Oh how, I (B7) want to go (E) home.
