Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, hey, hey, what ya got to say?
Say hey, hey, hey, what ya got to say?
Hollywood, Hollywood swinging
Hollywood, Hollywood swinging
[Verse 2]
I remember, not too long ago (Hey, hey)
I went to a theater, and I saw the Kool & The Gang show
I always wanted to fit into a band
To sing my songs and then become a bad piano playin' man
So here I am in this Hollywood city, yeah
The city of the stars, movies, women, and cars
Well, I guess I, I guess I'll stay
[Verse 3]
I say hey, hey, hey (Ho, hi) what ya got to say?
Say hey, hey, hey, what ya got to say?
Hollywood, Hollywood swinging
Hollywood, Hollywood swinging
[Verse 4]
(And it was swingin')
(Hollywood swinging, yeah)
[Verse 5]
Swinging, Hollywood swinging, yeah
Hollywood swinging, Hollywood now swinging
Hollywood swinging, Hollywood swinging
Hollywood now swinging, Hollywood now swinging
Hollywood now swinging, Hollywood swinging
Hollywood swinging, Hollywood swinging
Hollywood now swinging (Hollywood swing) Hollywood now swinging
Hollywood now swinging (Hollywood swing) Hollywood now swinging
Hollywood swinging (Hollywood swing) Hollywood now swinging
Hollywood swinging (Hollywood swing) Hollywood now swinging
Hollywood swinging (Hollywood swing) Hollywood now swinging
Hollywood now swinging (Hollywood swing) Hollywood swinging
