Your rating:
Dowdy Ferry Road I remember when I was a child My daddy said to me We want you to grow up son A lovin' your mom and me But there's gonna be some hard times When you bound to feelin' low And there's a place of jubilation Where the ragged people go * It's over on a back road On the other side of town In the quiet of the evening Sometimes you can hear the sound We'd all sit and listen And Momma'd say, "Baby don't you know That's the peoples' jubilation On Dowdy Ferry Road" They're singing it on the corner * Chorus: Dancing in the street Movin' to the music Swaying check to check If you get the feeling You'll never wanna go You'll wanna live forever On Dowdy Ferry Road * I saw her through a window A starin' back at me I ask her what her name was She told me Sara Lee And as we were walking She said, "Teach me to be free" I said, "The only place to go Is down Dowdy Ferry Road" * They're singing in on the corner Dancing in the street Movin' to the music Swaying check to check I heard her softly sayin' "I love you don't you know And we could live forever On Dowdy Ferry Road" * We're singing it on the corner * Chorus: Dancing in the street Movin' to the music Swaying check to check If you get the feeling You'll never wanna go You'll wanna live forever On Dowdy Ferry Road
