Going Back to Detroit

Lyrics

(Goin' back) I heard about a swingin' place They say the folks have all got soul And that's where I'm on my way Because the soul I will uphold Ha! Everybody's clapping their hands And stomping their feet And they say it all started (Goin' back) When they opened that crazy beat I've got to go (Goin' back) I can't take it no more Hey, listen to the beat, ha! Hey, it's alright now (Goin' back) Baby, it's alright I've got to go (Goin' back) I can't take it no more I'm goin' insane And I'm lonely for 12th and Blaine Oh, how sweet it is Oh, how sweet it is I've got to go (Goin' back) To the Motor City, ha! They say the soul is spreadin' 'round like an epidemic (Goin' back) And the girls are all so pretty Hey, listen to the beat I've got to go (Goin' back) I can't take it no more, hey! Yeah! Detroit City, where the girls (Shing-a-ling, shing-a-ling) Are so fine and pretty (Shing-a-ling, shing-a-ling) (Shing-a-ling) Yeah! I've got to go (Goin' back) I can't take it no more I've got to get on back (Goin' back) And I'm lonely for 12th and Blaine, y'all! In Detroit! Ha! I got to get on back to the city (Goin' back) Where the girls are so fine and pretty (Goin' back) Hey, where the music is rockin' the city (Goin' back) Detroit City, y'all! Gettin' on back now! (Goin' back) In a hurry, kinda quick-like! (Goin' back)
