detroit city - porter wagoner lyrics

Loading...

i wanna go home, i wanna go home, oh lord, i wanna go home.

last night i went to sleep in detroit city
and i dreamed about the cottonfields and home
i dreamed about my mother dear old papa, sister and brother
and i dreamed about the girl who’s waited for so long.

i wanna go home, i wanna go home, oh lord, i wanna go home.

the homefolks think i’m big in detroit city
from the letters that i write they think i’m fine
by day i make the cars, by night i make the bars
if they could only read between the lines.

i wanna go home, i wanna go home, oh lord, i wanna go home.

(spoken)
you know i rode the freight train north to detroit city
and after all these years i’d find i’ve just been wastin’ my time
i believe of my foolish pride on a southbound freight and ride
(sang)
back to the loved ones i’ve left so far behind.

i wanna go home, i wanna go home, oh lord, i wanna go home…
