What's the name of a popular old rock song with the lyrics "I wanna go home"?
Van Morrison - I Wanna Go Home





Sailed on the sloop john b


My granddaddy and me


'round nassau town we did roam


We'd been drinkin' all night


Well i got into a fight


Yeah and i feel so broke up


I wanna go home





Hoist up the john b sail's


See how the mainsail sets


Send for the captain ashore


And let me go home


I wanna go home, i wanna go home, yeah


'cause i feel so broke up, i wanna go home


Yes i do


(he's so broke up, lord, i wanna go home)





Well captain's a wicked man


He gets drunk any time he can


And he don't give a damn for grandpappy


No, nor me


He kicks us around


And he knocks us about


Well i feel so broke up, i


I wanna go home





Well pull up the john b's sails


See how the mainsail sets


Send for the captain ashore


And let me go home


I wanna go home


Well, i wanna go home


'cause i feel so broke up (he's so broke up)


I wanna go home


(yes i do)


I feel so broke up


(he so broke up)


Lord, that i wanna go home

Reply:Actually it's a country song. Detroit City is the name first recorded by Bobby Bare Here are the lyrics.





Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City,


and I dreamed about those cotton fields at 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, I wanna go home,


oh, how I wanna go home!





Home, folks think I'm big in Detroit City.


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


But by day, I make the cars,


and by night I make the bars,


If only they could read between the lines!





[Spoken]





You know,


I rode a freight train north to Detroit City.


After all these years,


I find that I've just been wastin' my time.


So I just think I'll take my foolish pride,


put on a south bound freight and ride,


Goin' back to the love ones,


The ones I left waitin' so far behind.





I wanna go home, I wanna go home,


oh, how I want to go home.
