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 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 Mama'd say, Baby don't you know
That's the people's jubilation
On Dowdy Ferry Road
They're singing it on the corner
Dancing in the street
Movin' to the music
Swayin' cheek to cheek
If you get the feeling
You'll never want to go
You'll want to 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 walkin'
She said, Teach me to be free
I said, The only place to go
Is down Dowdy Ferry Road
We're singing it on the corner
Dancing in the street
Movin' to the music
Swayin' cheek to cheek
I heard her softly sayin'
I love you, don't you know?
And we could live forever
On Dowdy Ferry Road
Singing it on the corner
Dancing in the street
Movin' to the music
Swayin' cheek to cheek
If you get the feeling
You'll never want to go
You'll want to live forever
On Dowdy Ferry Road
Singing it on the corner
Dancing in the street
Movin' to the music
Swayin' cheek to cheek
If you get the feeling
You'll never want to go
You'll want to live forever
On Dowdy Ferry Road
Singing it on the corner
Dancing in the street
Movin' to the music
Swayin' cheek to cheek
If you get the feeling
You'll never want to go
You'll want to live forever
On Dowdy Ferry Road

Lyrics by England Dan & John Ford Coley
Don't Feel That Way No More Everything's Gonna Be Alright Falling Stars Gone Too Far Holocaust I'd Really Love To See You Tonight I'd Really Love To See You Tonight I'll Stay In It For Love It's Not The Same It's Sad To Belong James At 15 ("It's All Up To You") Just Tell Me You Love Me Lady Long Way Home Love Is The Answer Love Is The One Thing We Hide Nights Are Forever Nights Are Forever Without You Part Of Me Part Of You Part Of Me, Part Of You Sad To Belong Showboat Gambler Soldier In The Rain Some Things Don't Come Easy The Prisoner There'll Never Be Another For Me Wanting You Desperately We'll Never Have To Say Goodbye Again We'll Never Have To Say Goodbye Again Westward Wind What Can I Do With This Broken Heart What's Forever For Where Do I Go From Here You Can't Dance You Know We Belong Together
