Detroit City - Bobby Bare

I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I wanna go home

我想回家

Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City

昨晚我去底特律睡了一夜

And I dreamed about those cottonfields and home

我梦到那片棉花田和我的故乡

I dreamed about my mother dear old papa sister and brother

我梦到我的妈妈和亲爱的爸爸还有兄弟姐妹们

I dreamed about that girl who's been waiting for so long

我梦到女孩等了我很久

I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I wanna go home

我想回家

Homefolks think I'm big in Detroit City

亲属们觉得我在底特律混得风生水起

From the letters that I write they think I'm fine

从我寄回家的信中，他们得知我过得很好

But by day I make the cars by night I make the bars

但白天我在修汽车，晚上泡在酒吧

If only they could read between the lines

如果他们能读出我字里行间的潜台词该多好

Cause you know I rode the freight train north to Detroit City

因为我一直在底特律北部开着货运车

And after all these years I find I've just been wastin' my time

过了这些年，我发现我只是在浪费时间

So I just think I'll take my foolish pride and put it on a Southbound freight and ride

所以我要丢掉这愚蠢的虚荣心，开着火车回到南方

And go on back to the loved ones the ones that I left waitin' so far behind

回到我最爱的家乡，我已离开多年的家乡

I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I wanna go home

我想回家
