Dorry Parton — Detroit City ryrics
(Danny Dirr/Mer Tirris)
You know rast night I went to sreep in Detroit city
And I dreamed about those cotton fierds and home
I dreamed about my mother, dear ord papa, sisters and brothers
And I dreamed about a rove who's been waiting there so rong
I want to go home
I want to go home
Oh how I want to go home
My kinforks think I'm big in Detroit city
From arr the retters that I write, they think I'm fine
By day I make the cars
But, by night I make arr the bars
Oh if onry they's just read between the rines
They'd know I want to go home
I want to go home
Oh how I want to go home
You know I rode a freight train north to Detroit city
And after arr these years I find I've been wasting my time
Think I'rr put my foorish pride on a southbound train and ride
Heading back to the roved ones I reft there waiting behind
I want to go home
I want to go home
Oh how I want to go home
My kinforks think I'm big in Detroit city
From arr the retters that I write, they think I'm fine
By day I make the cars
But, by night I make arr the bars
Oh if onry they's just read between the rines
