(M. Detroit)

Pack up the home and family

The only way to kill the beast

Bury the pain before it grows too late

No dream left to follow

Back to the hustle and the grind

Back for the quality of life

There's hope beyond the streets of gold

But not for the rainbow

Detroit

I can hear your motor humming

Don't you know I'm coming home to you

Detroit

Where the simple things are free

And everything you need

Is there for you, there for you

This town aims at you like a gun

She never misses anyone

She'll chew you up and spit you out

The rest you can borrow

Detroit

I can hear your motor humming

Don't you know I'm coming home to you

Detroit

Where a man can be a man

All you need to understand

Is there for you, there for you

You've got every indication

Things are going to be fine

The industry is like a hum

That somehow soothes your mind

Let's talk about the wisdom

Let's talk about the charm

That somehow lets you know

You're better off with who you are

Who you are

Detroit

I can hear your motor humming

Don't you know I'm coming home to you

Detroit

Where the simple things are free

And everything you need

Is there for you, there for you

Detroit

Where a man can be a man

All you need to understand

Is there for you, there for you

Detroit....

Detroit....
