Born and raised in the Detroit area, I wrote this song in the 80's when my boys were young.. I think it was the FIRST rap song !!! It is been updated to keep up with the NEW Detroit!


 
(TWO boys (9 and 12) SAY to the MOM
 
Mom we're so bored - there's Nothing to do!
 
(Mom Says)
 
Hey Guys don't you know
this is Motown
There's tons of places to go
 
(Mom Sings)
 
Let me tell you just what we got
In Detroit City
Our Wheels Don't Stop
 
We're Motor City
in the USA
Henry Ford the First
He paved the Way
 
Detroit's Hot
Detroit's Got
Mayor David Bing
To Take Us to the Top
 
Windsor Canada
So Neighborly
Bridge - River - Tunnel
to a Foreign Country
 
Hart Plaza - Ren-Cen
and Cobo Hall
The Greatest Eateries
All Ports Of Call
 
Detroit's Hot
Detroit's Got
Eastern Market
Where its fun to Shop
 
Tigers, Lions, Pistons and Wings
Home of Joe Louis - the Boxing King
Across the Nation - you all know Lee
He saved our Chrysler and Lady Liberty
 
Detroit's Hot
Detroit's Got
The Symphony Orchestra Beethoven or Bach
 
Motown Music, Casinos Too,
Science Center - Fine Arts to View
Fischer Theater the Detroit Zoo
DownTown, Greek Town
Rock, Soul, Jazz and Blues
 
Yeah!!
 
The People Mover in Now in Gear
River Front Parties Mean
Summers Here
Picnics, Belle Isle, International Grand Prix
The Fox Theater is the Place to Be
 
Detroit's Hot
Detroit;s Got
Absolutely Everything you Want
 
Mom Says

Boys Reply
 
YEAH MOM - Let's GO
