sweet memories

Lyrics

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
