1.Detroit City
I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I wanna go home
Last night I went to sleep in Detroit City
And I dreamed about those cottonfields and home
I dreamed about my mother dear old papa sister and brother
I dreamed about that girl who's been waiting for so long
I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I wanna go home
Homefolks 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
Cause you know I rode the freight train north to Detroit City
And after all these years I find I've just been wastin' my time
So I just think I'll take my foolish pride and put it on a
Southbound freight and ride
And go on back to the loved ones the ones that I left waitin' so
far behind
I wanna go home I wanna go home oh how I wanna go home
2.Is It Wrong(For Loving You)
Is it wrong for loving you, is it wrong for being true
Tell me please, tell me dear is it wrong
Have I waited for so long, has your love for me gone
Is it wrong, is it wrong for loving you？
Oh, way down deep inside my heart you're the only love
sweetheart
Yes, the only true love I ever knew
But I ask myself inside, no need tellin' myself lies
Is it wrong, is it wrong for loving you？
(Is it wrong, is it wrong, is it wrong？)
Way down deep inside my heart you're the only love sweetheart
So is it wrong, is it wrong for loving you？...
3.Lorina
The years creep slowly by Lorena snow is on the grass again
The sun is sinking low Lorena frost is where the flowers have
been
The music softly plays Lorena happy sounds have left today
The music's sad and low Lorena where once it rang so loud and
gay
I hardly feel the snow Lorena I know the darkness soon will pass
We'll sing our songs again Lorena you'll be in my arms at last
Yes you'll be in my arms at last
4.Shame On Me
Shame on me for hurting you what can I say what can I do
Last night I was blind but today I see I did you wrong shame on
me
You say you won't be seein' me again you say we're through
I wouldn't want to see the sunrise tomorrow if I knew that to be
true
I know that just sayin' sorry doesn't sound out a lot
But the girl you saw me with last night means no more to me
Than the thousand stars to the great clouds that cover the night
The more I look at her the more I realize how much I love you
Shame on me for hurting you...
I'll admit I shouldn't have given into love's wild temptation
With someone I cared nothing for I was blind and I hurt you
Can you ever forgive the fool the fool who really loves you
Last night I was blind but today I see I did you wrong shame on
me
5.I'd Fight The World
I don't care what anybody thinks of me
For my pride is gone and here I am on bended knees
I only know I need you and I love you so
And I'd fight the world before I'd ever let go go
I'd gladly beg or steal I'd borrow I'd turn my back on everyone
I know
I'd do these things with no fear of tomorrow
I'd fight the world before I'd let go go
Yes I've heard 'em talkin' about me lovin' you like I do
And they are sayin' things like no one should love anyone as
much as I love you
But I don't care if the world stops and the sun explodes or the
moon turns to ashes
I'd gladly stand and fight the world before I'd let you go
I'd gladly beg or steal I'd borrow...

I've been writin' Mary Lou letters every day
But I just found out lately how she throws them all away
She don't even bother to read the things I say

I'll say oh dear wastebasket care of Mary Lou
If you see her say I need her like I'll always do
She won't read my letters now I write to you dear wastebasket

No she don't even bother...
7.All American Boy
Writer(s)：Bobby Bare
Mixing：
Gather 'round cats and I'll tell you a story
'bout how to become an all-American Boy.
Just buy you a guitar and put it in tune
and you'll be a rockin and a rollin soon.
Impressin the girls, hittin hot licks, and all that jazz.
I bought me a guitar about a year ago and I
Learned how to play it in a day or so.
And all around town it was well understood
that I was knocking 'em out like Johnny B. Goode.
Hot licks, showing off, ah, number one.
Well I practiced all day and up into the night,
My papa's hair was a gettin kinda white.
He didn't dig that,ah, rock and roll.
He said, 'You can stay boy, but that's gotta go.'
He's a square; just didn't dig me at all.
So I packed my guitar, picks and all, and I said farewll to my
poor old pa.
I split for Memphis where they say 'you all'
And them swinging cats are a havin a ball.
Yeah, they love me down there, guitar picks and all.
I was rocking and bopping and getting all the breaks,
And the girls all said that I had what it takes,
When up steps a man with a big cigar. He said. 'Come here, kid.
I'm gonna make you a star.'
Put you on 'Bandstand', buy you a cadillac. Sign here, kid.'
So I signed my name and became a star, having a ball with my
guitar.
Driving a big, long cadillac. And fighting the girls off'n my
back.
But they just keep a comin, screaming, they love it.
So I picked my guitar with a great big grin
And the money just kept on rollin in.
And then one day my Uncle Sam said (thump, thump, thump) 'here I
am!
Uncle Sam needs you, boy. Gimme that guitar. Take this rifle.
Yeahhhh - gonna cut your hair off... .
8.I Don't Believe I'll Fall In Love Today
I don't believe I'll fall in love today old memories of you
stand in the way
Well I just can't make my heart find someone new
It's always much too busy loving you
So I don't believe I'll fall in love today cause if I did I'm
sure I wouldn't stay
You'd just come between us like you always do
I'm sure she'd never measure up to you
Each night I pray I'll wake at dawn and find another in my heart
and on my mind
Then I'll wake and I'll hear my poor heart say
Oh no I don't believe I'll fall in love today
Each night I pray I'll wake at dawn and find...
Um um I don't believe I'll fall in love today
9.Brooklyn Bridge
Writer(s)：Bobby Bare
Mixing：
Oh, there I stood in the great big city
Where the buildings're tall and the girls're all pretty
Up stepped a man he said come here son
I got a big deal now if you got the mon'
I bought the Brooklyn Bridge
Two dollars, two cigarettes and an autograph picture of Elvis.
Well, I kept my bridge for a day or so
But then my money was a runnin' low
And I tried to make me a sale
But the man done come and he took me to jail.
Said I's crazy, laughed at
Told me that a society frowned upon them.
Well, then he stood me up in a front of a judge
I stood there a grinnin' but the judge didn't budge.
He said 30 dollars or 30 days
And I looked at him and all I could say
Was all that take 30 dollars, couldn't make that 35 could you
Spend all my money on that bridge.
Well, after 90 days in that man's jail
I still tryin' to make me a sale
Met some cat called Skid Row Pete
So I traded it off for 52nd Street.
Big deal, oh big man of action,
A big transaction.
I bet the folks back home could never realize
That in a great big town this size
Boy like theirs could own the street
Spend his days just to keepin' it neat.
Pickin' up cigarette butts, wine bottles
Terrorizing the pedestrians, hoo them pigeons
I bet old Skid Row Pete ain't got no pigeons
On the Brooklyn Bridge...
10.She Called Me Baby
She called me baby baby all night long used to hold and kiss me
till the dawn
Then one day I awoke and she was gone ah there's no more baby
baby all night long
Well she called me baby baby all night long lift me up so high
and made me strong
Well what I'd give if she'd just come back home and call me baby
baby all night long
Yeah she called me baby baby all night long
Kissed my tears away when things went wrong
But now each night in dreams just like a song I still hear baby
baby all night long
But there's no more baby baby all night long
11.The Gods Were Angry With Me
The Gods were angry with me for loving you
The Gods were angry with me because they knew
I stood at heaven's portals but they were too high for any
mortal such as I
So they took down the sun the skies were gray then the howling
wind took you away
There was nothing I could do for I could see
It was because the Gods were angry with me
Once upon a time when our love was young and new
I was so happy in the heaven that I have found
Then one day the Gods looked down and they saw me there holding
you
That day they sent my heaven crashing to the ground
Yes they took down the sun the skies were gray...

Writer(s)：Bobby Bare

They say for every boy there's a girl and she's waitin'
somewhere in this world
It's all been planned to someone up above and I know it's

Written there for all the world to see written there to last
eternally
Night and day it's you I'm dreaming of and I know our names are

reason or regret
Night and day it's you I'm dreaming of and I know our names are

Night and day it's you I'm dreaming of and I know our names are
in that book of love
Yes I know our names are in that book of love
