Frankie Valli Hickory song lyrics

Someday baby, we'll leave this town

For a little house and counrty scene

But right now my love

It's gonna take some time

Saving our nickels

Counting all our dimes

Then hickory glows, 'cause hickory knows

With each song she sings him

A new day she brings him

He says hickory when your singing the blues

This downtown guy feels like uptown new

Something in your voice sounded soothing and clear

Like magic, this old ghetto seems to disappear

There across town, in a brown stone cellar

There's a bit of heaven singin'

Every night a song keeps bringin'

Crowds of people by the score

Hickory's heart must be made of sunshine

Singing songs of sweet salvation

Brings back inspiration

Keeps them coming back for more

They sing hickory, when your singing the blues

This downtown street feels like uptown new

Something in your voice sounded soothing and clear

Like magic this old ghetto seems to disappear

Hickory got a guy she lives for

He drives taxi downtown city

That job of his is dirt and gritty

'Nough to make a big man cry

Countin' his coin till makes a dollar

To pay the rent for where they're sleepin'

She's always at the door to greet him

Sayin' they'll make it by and by

Hickory when your singin' the blues

This downtown guy feels like uptown new

Something in your voice sounded soothing and clear

Like magic this old ghetto seems to disappear

Hickory, hickory, hickorrryyyyy

Hickory, hickory...
