I wanna go home I wanna go home oh Lord I wanna go homeLast night I went to sleep in Detroit CityAnd I dreamed about those cottonfields and homeI dreamed about my mother dear old papa sister and brotherAnd I dreamed about the girl that's been waiting for so longI wanna go home I wanna go home oh Lord I wanna go home

Now the homefolks think I'm big in Detroit CityFrom the letters that I write they think I'm just fineBy day I make the cars and by night I'm a makin' the bars
Lord if only they could read between the linesAs you know I rode a long black freight train way up north to Detroit CityBut after all these years I find that well I've just been wastin' my timeBut you know what I think I'm gonna do folks I'm gonna take my foolish prideAnd put it on a Southbound freight and rideI wanna go home I wanna go home oh Lord I wanna go home
