[Jukebox-list] Re: Records

Ahh, yes, Bobby Bare's "Detroit City"... a song about
a southerner who came to Detroit to make money working
in a factory, but who misses his home down South:

"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,
by night I make the bars,
If only they could read between the lines,

I want to go home, I want to go home,
Oh Lord, I want to go home."

Now, that's a real classic.

Boris Boland
