I’m working on an old song about the 1967 riots which I heard my parents and all of the families in my old Detroit neighborhood sing years ago. I’ve decided to call the song “Mama, pack your bags ‘cause we’re selling the house and moving to Warren!” The original song had no name but was sung to the tune of “Old McDonald had a farm” by the over one million people who have left the city as they crossed 8 Mile Road into the suburbs and never returned since that terrible summer.
