| She packed her bags and left for Hollywood
|
| To be the star I knew she could
|
| She’s been saving up for quite some time
|
| Workin' down at that Five and Dime
|
| We said goodbye on a warm spring night
|
| I just stood there and watched those fading taillights
|
| 'Cause you can hold your own
|
| Against anybody I know
|
| And stand right up to any man
|
| And it’s not that I’m afraid
|
| You won’t come back to me some day
|
| It’s just will this life be as grand?
|
| I heard she found a place and settled in
|
| Found some work and made some friends
|
| And well there ain’t much changed 'round here
|
| I just drive my truck down to gt some beer
|
| 'Cause you can hold your own
|
| Against anybody I know
|
| And stand right up to any man
|
| And it’s not that I’m afraid
|
| You won’t come back to m some day
|
| It’s just will this life be as grand?
|
| And if you need a place to hide away
|
| If those city dreams ever start to fray
|
| And if the busy sounds ever bring you down
|
| You can find me in a small town
|
| And girl I really do wish you the best
|
| And I hope you find your happiness
|
| And if you ever change your mind
|
| You’ll find that I been waiting here all the time
|
| 'Cause you can hold your own
|
| Against anybody I know
|
| And stand right up to any man
|
| And it’s not that I’m afraid
|
| You won’t come back to me some day
|
| It’s just will this life be as grand?
|
| And it’s just will this life be as grand? |
