There's a town by a river
|
And a dirt road that runs through the town
|
Winding around
|
As a child I would daydream
|
Where that road might take me
|
When my time for leavin' came down
|
And each night I'd awaken
|
From a dream I was takin'
|
That 'ol dirt road out of this town
|
Sweet memories keep haunting me
|
Callin' me like an old friend
|
And I pray that someday
|
I'll ride this highway
|
'Till it turns to that dirt road again
|
Now I live in the city
|
Where man made mountains of steel
|
To block out the sky
|
And that river of traffic
|
That runs by my window
|
Never seems to run dry
|
And tonight before sleeping I pray God is keeping
|
That old place that I left behind
|
Sweet memories keep haunting me
|
Callin' me like an old friend
|
And I pray that someday I'll ride this highway
|
'Till it turns to that dirt road again
|
In the city tonight
|
When I turn out the lights
|
I'll be ridin' that 'ol dirt road again
|
