Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Whoa, welcome to my town
High energy is all around tonight
Whoa, you best beware
There's violence in the air tonight, huh
Well, Detroit city, she's the place to be
Yeah, this mad-dog town gonna set you free
[Verse 2]
Oh, when do we mount the stage?
Gonna cause a mad dog rage
Whoa, when you see my name
Gonna set this town aflame
That's right
Well, Detroit city, she's the place to be
Murder town's gonna set you free tonight
Oh, no, ow!
[Verse 3]
Hey
Ow!
Right now!
[Verse 4]
Whoa, those fortified motor cars
High energy and it's all ours
Dig this, whoa, such a heavy place for all the boys and girls
It's the murder capital of the world
Yow!
Well, Detroit city, she's the place to be
Mad dog town gonna set you free
I say
[Verse 5]
It's a Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse (It's a madhouse)
Motor City madhouse (Welcome to my madhouse)
Motor City madhouse (It's a Motor City madhouse)
Motor City madhouse (Ow)
[Verse 6]
Such a madhouse, I can't hardly get next to myself
Ow, ah, na-na-na-na-now
[Verse 7]
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse (Ow)
Motor City madhouse (Oh, it's such a madhouse)
Motor City madhouse (Ow)
Motor City madhouse (Ow)
Motor City madhouse (Ah, na-na-na-na-now)
Motor City madhouse (Ow)
[Verse 8]
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
Motor City madhouse
