Downtown by Petula Clark – an international
hit in 1964
When you're
alone and life is making you lonelyYou 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 sidewalk 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
So go downtown
Things will be great when you're downtown
No finer place for sure, downtown
Everything's waiting for you
Here is a YouTube clip
of it for you

Certainly a walk down memory lane! The sixties seem to be back in a lot of ways!!
