Detroit City (Country Friends version)
Words and music by
Danny Dill and Mel TIllis and recorded by Ace Cannon
and Carl Perkins, among others.
I wanna go home, I wanna go home
Oh how I wanna go home
Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
And I dreamed about those cottonfields and 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 |
