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

Richard Elliot is a Scottish-born saxophone player who first found fame as a member of the funk band Tower of Power.

Other well-known songs include "In the Groove," "Take Your Time," "Crush," "Corner Pocket," and "Sly" (presumably a tribute to Sly Stone), as well as remakes of classic pop songs like "I'm Not in Love" and the Luther Vandross hits "Here and Now" and "Your Secret Love."
