carl simmons - hollywood u.s.a. lyrics

Loading...

i packed it up, my bags, for hollywood
’bout to make my big’n debut
but the gate+man there wouldn’t even let me through

i pleaded, “mister gate man, if you could”
i would lie to him my name [?]
’cause i work so hard but i never make a mark in this life

but don’t you die or tell eliza where i gone
she still thinks i went up north to see my ma’
‘nd if i could just make it as a star
i would’a said farewell with a simple [?]

the gate man, he looked at me in a simple thing
said he’ll asking these questions, three
the first one being, “my son, tell me what you be”

“well, i been a restless mind and a [?]
but i never been this far from home
well, i guess the best thing that i’ve ever been is all alone”

but don’t you die or tell eliza where i gone
she still thinks i went up north to see my ma’
‘nd if i could just make it as a star
i would’a said farewell with a simple [?]
the gate man, he looked at me shoes when the question was two
and he asked it kind of sly and slow
he says, “i beg yer pardon, son, but could ya’ tell me just who you know?”

“well, i know my momma, and i know my poppa
oh, i know the man he used’a to be
well, i guess the only man i know, or have to know, would have to be me”

but don’t you die or tell eliza where i gone
she still thinks i went up north to see my ma’
‘nd if i could just make it as a star
i would’a said farewell with a simple [?]

the gate man, he said i could pass if i answered the last
of questions, of his questions, three
said, “this is hollywood, son, tell me just what is your dream?”

“well, i’m always fallin’, but i’m never landin’
but i know that isn’t what it could mean
i mean i always had a dream to play my songs up on that big ol’ screen”

but don’t you die or tell eliza where i gone
she still thinks i went up north to see my ma’
‘nd if i could just make it as a star
i would say farewell with a simple [?]
well, the gate man, he started to laugh as he tore in my path
and he said, “even if you sing like a bird”
“[?] there’s no place for a man to be heard”

well, i thought it through for a second or two
‘n’ then i turned to make my way back home
when a bus pulled in the station, it was blastin’ [?]

so don’t you die or tell eliza where i gone
she still thinks i went up north to see my ma’
‘nd if i could just make it as a star
i would’a said farewell with a simple [?]
