Bb
Oh Lord, I want to go home
F
The home folks think I'm big
Bb
in Detroit City

From the letters I write home,
Bb
they think I'm fine
Eb
Cause the day I make the cars,
Bb
and at night I make the bars
C
If only they could read
F
Bb
between the lines
F
Cause you know,
Bb
I rode a free train north to Detroit City
F
And after all these years, I find, why,
Bb
I've just been wasting my time
Eb
So I think I'll take my foolish pride,
Bb
put it on South Mount Friedenride
C
And go on back to the loved ones,
F
the ones I left behind

I wanna go home, I wanna go home
