Detroit City Blues
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Detroit City
It was the finest city it was
Yes Detroit City
It was the finest city it was
I'm crazy 'bout that city
And I love its pretty girls
When you leave that city
And you feel this kind of love
When you leave that city
And you feel this kind of love
Just one goes out easy
And you find a good place to go
You don't need a lot of money
To have a real good time
You don't need a lot of money
To have a real good time
Just be a real good boy
And everything will turn out fine
