Dolores Jones (Hough is Her Home)

 

Born in ‘37

That was quite the year

Roosevelt, and World War Two, 

And recession from ear to ear

 

But we came out through it

Here in the Hough neighborhood

Workin’ together to figure out 

Doing all we could

 

Chorus:     Delores Jones , Hough is her home

Five generations

A family of angels

Full of dedication

 

Delores Jones, Hough is her home

Fills her heart with memories

Cookin’ for her babies

And now she’s passed the spoon

And someday you will too

 

There once was a time, when she

Moved her feet, nonstop

To the sweet sounds

Of that melodic beat

 

She moved she swayed, in the

Hot summer days, with her 

Adoring friends

Hopin’ it would never end 

 

Repeat Chorus:
