Downtown Lyrics By Dolly Parton

    when you’re alone and life is making you lonely
    you can always go downtown
    when you’ve got worries all the noise and the hurry
    seems to help i know downtown

    just listen to the music of the traffic in the city
    linger on the sidewalks where the neon signs are pretty
    how can you lose the lights are much brighter there
    you can forget all your troubles forget all your cares

    and go downtown
    things’ll be great when you’re downtown
    no finer place for sure downtown
    everything’s waiting for you

    don’t hang around and let your problems surround you
    there are movie shows downtown
    or maybe you know some little places to go
    to where they never close downtown

    just listen to the rhythm of the music that they’re playing
    making conversation while you’re on the dance floor swaying
    happy again the lights are much brighter there
    you can forget all your troubles forget all your cares

    and go downtown
    where all the lights are bright downtown
    waiting for you tonight downtown
    you’re gonna be alright now

    and you may find somebody kind to help and understand you
    someone who is just like you and needs a gentle hand to
    guide them along so maybe i’ll see you there
    you can forget all your troubles just forget all your cares

    and go downtown
    things’ll be great when you’re downtown
    don’t wait a minute more downtown
    everything’s waiting for you

    downtown where all the lights are bright
    downtown waiting for you tonight
    downtown you’re going to be alright now
    get on get on get on downtown

    downtown where all the lights are bright
    downtown waiting for you tonight
    downtown you’re going to be alright now
    get on get on get on downtown
