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

Eddie Holman's 1970 number two smash "Hey There Lonely Girl," with its creamy falsetto vocals and lush Philly soul arrangement, is one of the most well-remembered one-shot soul hits. Actually, Holman had been recording since the early '60s, scoring some minor hits with "This Can't Be True" (1965) and "Am I a Loser (From the Start)" (1966). In 1969, he hooked up with Philadelphia producer Peter DeAngelis, best known for his work with teen idols Fabian and Frankie Avalon.
