Ia bagaikan wanita manapun dekat rumah Anda
Explanation:
Istilah ‘down the road’ / ‘up the street’ menandakan bahwa wanita itu tinggal dekat dengan penulis lagu. Dua-duanya kurang lebih identik.

she is like the lady down the road or just the woman up the street
Dia seperti nyonya yang rumahnya tak seberapa jauh atau wanita yang tinggalnya hanya selemparan batu


Explanation:
Dia seperti nyonya yang rumahnya tak seberapa jauh
Atau wanita yang tinggalnya hanya selemparan batu
Seperti ibu biasa mana pun yang kau kenal.


Lady down the road dan woman up the street menunjukkan bahwa wanita yang dibicarakan adalah wanita biasa yang dengan mudah bisa ditemui di sekitar Anda, seperti tetangga dekat saja. Menurut saya ini mirip dengan istilah girl next door. Tapi mother dan woman mengisyaratkan dia seorang ibu dan mungkin sudah tidak terlalu muda, maka lady dapat diterjemahkan sebagai nyonya.
