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....
