[00:14.92] I'm a writer and a lover
[00:19.09] I'm midwest music man
[00:22.80] And I've been to a lot of places
[00:26.22] But I'm gon end where I began
[00:30.45] I took class in Carolina
[00:34.81] Got high smoking joints
[00:38.36] And now they know my name in Paris
[00:41.47] But I'll be buried in Detroit
[00:45.38] Next to my father
[00:49.61] And my father's father too
[00:53.41] I used to live in New York City
[00:56.76] But baby that ain't no substitute
[01:00.56] Not for my hometown
[01:04.54] That place people avoid
[01:08.83] I've made love in every city
[01:12.14] But I'll be buried in Detroit
[01:15.68]
[01:32.41] I don't claim to be a prophet
[01:36.39] I just speak my mind
[01:40.59] I try to tell it like it is
[01:43.83] And sometime god makes it rhyme
[01:47.93] I like my songs how I like my women
[01:52.04] Honest and to the point
[01:55.83] You see I got fucked up in Stockholm
[01:59.20] But I'll be buried in Detroit
[02:02.93] Next to my father
[02:07.15] And my father's father too
[02:10.88] I used to live in New York City
[02:14.17] But baby that ain't no substitute
[02:18.16] Not for my hometown
[02:22.82] That place people avoid
[02:26.56] I've made love in every city
[02:29.66] But I'll be buried in Detroit
[02:34.01]
[02:49.89] You know I ain't gon live forever
[02:53.99] Baby it won't be long
[02:57.41] At the wake thay'll say
[02:59.54] He make a lot of mistakes
[03:01.90] But he could write hell of a song
[03:05.70] And I made, I made killing
[03:09.37] Though I never really was employed
[03:13.35] I had a girl from San Diego
[03:18.52] But I'll be buried in
[03:24.55] I killed a show in Indoesia
[03:29.59] But I'll be buried in
[03:35.07] I made love in every city
[03:40.91] But I'll be buried in Detroit
[03:55.26]
