Went Down to Motown (Detroit)
Ahhhhhhhhh Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Went down to Motown looking all around
Searching high and low he’s nowhere to be found

Went down to Motown where we both first met
Down by the river, how could he forget?
Went down to Motown, Woodward Avenue
I thought he’d be there, if I only knew

Went down to Motown looking all around
Searching high and low he’s nowhere to be found

He’s seldom serious –I don’t know what to do
‘Cause if he’s got one girl, he wants two

Went down to Motown
Went down to Motown

Went down to Motown, didn’t see him there
He’s with her again, it’s some big love affair

Went down to Motown, we were gonna meet
This is such a blow, he is such a cheat
Went down to Motown, saw him there with her
I think it was him, but I can’t be sure

Went down to Motown looking all around
Searching high and low she’s nowhere to be found

So seldom serious –I don’t know what to do
‘Cause if he’s got one girl, he wants two

Went down to Motown, got nothing to lose
Time to forget him, shake off all the blues
Went down to Motown, looking all around
Searching high and low, he’s nowhere to be found

He’s seldom serious –I don’t know what to do
‘Cause if he’s got one girl, he wants two (two)

Ahhhhhhhhhh Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh laaaaaaaaaaaa

Went down to Motown, meet up with some friends
I am done with him, he let our love end
Went down to Motown looking all around
Searching high and low he’s nowhere to be found

Went down to Motown dahhhhhhhhhh
Went down to Motown dadahhhhhhhhhh
Went down to Motown dadahhhdahhhhhhh
Went down to Motown dadadadadadadera
