Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's just heartbreakin'
I should have known that it would let me down
It's just mind achin'
I used to dream about this town
[Verse 2]
It was a sight to see, the place to be
Where the livin' is easy
And the kicks can always be found
[Verse 3]
It's such a shame about it
I used to think that it would feel so good
But who's to blame about it?
So many creeps in Hollywood
[Verse 4]
I'm in this dumb motel near the Taco Bell
Without a hope in hell
I can't believe that I'm still around
[Verse 5]
Ain't nothing new in my life today
Ain't nothin' true, it's all gone away
[Verse 6]
I've had too much cryin', seen too much grief
I'm sick of tryin', it's beyond belief
I'm tired of talking on the telephone
They're tryna tell me that they're not at home
[Verse 7]
Ain't nothing new in my life today
I've had enough of walkin' from place to place
[Verse 8]
I've yet to come across a friendly face
And now the words sound familiar
As they slam the door
You're not what you're lookin' for
[Verse 9]
Ain't nothing new in my life today
Ain't nothin' true, it's all gone away
[Verse 10]
If we only had time, only had time for you
If we only had time, only had time for you
If we only had time, only had time for you
[Verse 11]
It was heartbreakin'
Now, I ride in a big fine car
It was mind achin'
Yeah, I'm the talk of the boulevard
[Verse 12]
So, keep your chin up, boy, forget the pain
I know you'll make it if you try again
There's no use in quitting when
The world is waiting for you
