She left town with the guitar man
|
From the Delta Outlaws hillbilly band
|
They played the Elks and the Eagles club
|
The VFW and the Holiday Inn
|
No matter what big stories he told her
|
This little town was too small to hold her
|
|
She always said she had to get out of here
|
Had to get outta this place
|
She always had her heart set on Hollywood
|
Heaven knows she had the face
|
There wasn¡¯t nothin¡¯ that she couldn¡¯t do
|
Once she got the thought in her head
|
I¡¯m here ¡®til I¡¯m gone
|
And that¡¯s what she always said
|
|
Well she left him with a heart broke grin
|
On a first class flight outta New Orleans
|
Her plane disappeared as he was wavin¡¯ goodbye
|
He could only imagine she was wavin¡¯ at him
|
But he¡¯s not the first and he won¡¯t be the last
|
She would¡¯ve told him but he didn¡¯t ask
|
|
She always said she had to get out of here
|
Had to get outta this place
|
She always had her heart set on Hollywood
|
Heaven knows she had the face
|
There wasn¡¯t nothin¡¯ that she couldn¡¯t do
|
Once she got the thought in her head
|
I¡¯m here ¡®til I¡¯m gone
|
And that¡¯s what she always said
|
|
She ain¡¯t the kind to let herself
|
Be tied down to anything
|
I know I didn¡¯t wanna listen
|
Anytime she started talkin¡¯ that way
|
|
She always said she had to get out of here
|
Had to get outta this place
|
She always had her heart set on Hollywood
|
Heaven knows she had the face
|
There wasn¡¯t nothin¡¯ that she couldn¡¯t do
|
Once she got the thought in her head
|
I¡¯m here ¡®til I¡¯m gone
|
And that¡¯s what she always said
|
