Lyrics for 'Detroit City' by 'Tom Jones'
Last Night I Went To Sleep In Detroit City,
And I Dreamed About Those Cotton Fields At Home.
I Dreamed About My Mother,
Dear Old Papa, Sister And Brother,

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!

Home, 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 Cars,
And By Night I Make The Bars,
If Only They Could Read Between The Lines!

(spoken)

You Know,
I Rode A Freight Train North To Detroit City.
After All These Years,
I Find That I've Just Been Wastin' My Time.
So I Just Think I'll Take My Foolish Pride,
Put On A South Bound Freight And Ride,
Goin' Back To The Love Ones,
The Ones I Left Waitin' So Far Behind.

I Wanna Go Home, I Wanna Go Home,
Oh, How I Want To Go Home
