Long Way To Hollywood |
| Oh babe, I hate to leave you here |
| Down in this one horse town |
| Where the train runs through |
| Your early mornin' dreams |
| Just to leave that ol' wailin' sound |
| Oh, but I’m comin' back, I will return |
| Now woman, you wait for me |
| I’m bound to travel the U.S.A |
| From the desert unto the sea |
| I’ve got another song about the South |
| You know it’s white now and it’s black |
| There ain’t no banjo on my knee |
| But that song is still on my back |
| It’s a long, long way to Hollywood |
| And it’s a short, short chance for fame |
| All them slicks people talkin' back home |
| But I’ll make it just the same |
| Oh, I’ll make it just the same |
| I’ve got a new song for all them old people |
| Hoverin' down in the Georgia night |
| Lord, I know their wings are heavy now |
| 'Coz they been on a lonesome flight |
| All them poor old depression people, babe |
| You know they took a might heavy load |
| All the children, kinfolks, cousins too |
| Still walkin' down Tobacco Road |
| Well, if you’ll tell me about Hank Williams, Lord |
| They’re clingin' onto his fame |
| I’m of the same race, I’m from the same place |
| Got the same lonesome blood in my veins |
| It’s a long, long way to Hollywood |
| And it’s a short, short chance for fame |
| All them slicks people talkin' down home |
| But I’ll make it just the same |
| Oh, I’ll make it just the same |
| It’s a long, long way to Hollywood |
| And it’s a short, short chance for fame |
