"Doraville, just a country in the city!"

I thought that lyric was:

"Doraville, a little country in the city....
Doraville, it ain't much but it's home!"

(Atlanta Rhythm Section)

"Doraville, just a country in the city!"

"Doraville, touch of country in the city!"

I lived 2 miles from Doraville in the '60s when this song was king.
It was a little town full of 'good ole boys' that just became another signpost of never-ending Atlanta up Buford Hwy near Chamblee.

It retained some of it's rural feel....thus a touch of countey even though it was nestled smack-dab in the "Big A".

You could very well be right about that lyric! I went for years thinking that "New Attitude" by Patti Labelle said "New Pair of Shoes"!

Neon Nights was the best ARS song. :-)
