E
Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City,
A
and I dreamed about those cotton fields at home.
I dreamed about my mother,
E
dear old Papa, Sister and brother,
F#
I dreamed about that girl
B7
who's been waiting for so long.
E A
I wanna go home, I wanna go home,
B7 E
oh, how I wanna go home!
E
Home, folks think I'm big in Detroit City.
A
From the letters that I write, they think I'm fine.
But by day, I make the cars,

E
and by night I make the bars,
F# B7
If only they could read between the lines!

E
You know,
I rode a freight train north to Detroit City.
After all these years,
A
I find that I've just been wastin' my time.
So I just think I'll take my foolish pride,
E
put on a south bound freight and ride,
F#
Goin' back to the love ones,
B7
The ones I left waitin' so far behind.
E A
I wanna go home, I wanna go home,
B7 E
oh, how I want to go home.
