Going Back to Detroit
(Going back)
I heard about the swingers place
They say the folks have all got soul
And that's where I'm on my way
Because the soul I will uphold
Everybody's clapping their hands
And stomping their feet
And the scene all started
Oh, when they open that crazy thief
I've got to go (going back)
I can't take it no more
Hey, listen to the beat
Hey, it's alright now (going back)
It's alright, I've got to go (going back)
I can't take it no more
I'm going insane
And I know it was well damn played
Oh, how sweet it is
Oh, how sweet it is
I've got to go (going back)
To the motion city
They say the soul is where the mouth lacks different gibberish
And the girls are all so pretty
Hey, listen to the beat
I've got to go (going back)
I can't take it no more, hey
Yeah, this girl I see, she's about to go
She's so fine, she's pretty, yeah
I got to go (going back)
I can't take it no more
I got to get on back (going back)
And I'm going, it's about to rain y'all in Detroit
I got to get on back to the city where the girls are so fine
Hey, where the music is rocking the city
Detroit city, y'all, getting on back now
I heard about the swingers place
They say the folks have all got soul
And that's where I'm on my way
Because the soul I will uphold
Everybody's clapping their hands
And stomping their feet
And the scene all started
Oh, when they open that crazy thief
I've got to go (going back)
I can't take it no more
Hey, listen to the beat
Hey, it's alright now (going back)
It's alright, I've got to go (going back)
I can't take it no more
I'm going insane
And I know it was well damn played
Oh, how sweet it is
Oh, how sweet it is
I've got to go (going back)
To the motion city
They say the soul is where the mouth lacks different gibberish
And the girls are all so pretty
Hey, listen to the beat
I've got to go (going back)
I can't take it no more, hey
Yeah, this girl I see, she's about to go
She's so fine, she's pretty, yeah
I got to go (going back)
I can't take it no more
I got to get on back (going back)
And I'm going, it's about to rain y'all in Detroit
I got to get on back to the city where the girls are so fine
Hey, where the music is rocking the city
Detroit city, y'all, getting on back now
