Well, they call me Hollywood, out on the street
|
I'll be your guide tonight, the boulevard's my beat
|
Gonna meet a lotta hustlers, who wanta make the big score
|
Take a ride with me, I'll give you the tour
|
Life is hard here and nothin's ever like it seems
|
Down on the boulevard, the boulevard of broken dreams
|
Sally, she's a dancer, down at the Lightnin' Bar
|
They put dollars down her g-string, while she dreams she's a star
|
Billy's a bouncer, he writes books on the side
|
But he's gotta use his muscle to keep the drunks in line
|
Life is hard here...
|
Old Piano Jack, playin' barrell-house blues
|
He says the style's comin' back and he believes it's true
|
Lisa's an actress, that what she tells me
|
From the johns I've seen her with, I guess she'd have to be
|
Life is hard here...
|
If you're wonderin' who I am , I'm the one to blame
|
You can call me Hollywood, though I have many names
|
I'm the one who lures you, from the cities and the towns
|
I'm the man behind the curtain, shoutin' A come on down
|
Life is hard here...
