Album: The Very Best of

Goin' to Detroit Michigan,
Girl I can't take you
Hey I'm goin' to Detroit Michigan,
Girl, you got to stay here behind
Goin' to get me a job,
On the Cadillac assembly line

I'm tired of whoopin' and hollerin'
Up and down the Mississippi road
Oh I'm tired of whoopin' and hollerin'
Pickin' that nasty cotton

Gonna catch me a bus up North,
I won't have to keep sayin' yessir boss

Solo

Goin' to Detroit Michigan,
Girl I can't take you
Hey I'm goin' to Detroit Michigan,
Girl, you got to stay here behind
Goin' to get me a job,
On the Cadillac assembly line

Well, girl if you'll be alright,
And keep your blue jeans zipped up tight
When I make my first check,
I'll put you on the Delta jet Hey hey
I'm gonna send for you darlin'
Won't you come on home

Solo – vamp out
