Lyrics
Hollywood ain't callin' for me
And it don't look like she's fallin' for me
Them city girls and me ain't meant to be
I got caught sippin' moonshine from a mayonnaise jar
And now moonlight hits a squad car
Well I got a head full of bootleg a gut full of butterflies
A ringin' in my ear and a sting in my eyes
Well the city took away my girl today for the lights and the money
She said "Well that's the showbiz honey."
And so she's leavin' for California
Ridin' them silver wings all perfumed up and wearin' pretty things
So live and learn let me burn and I'll admit when I'm beat
If I'm an angry young man lord weren't you sweet
When I was workin' on my looks, readin' all her books
Doin' the best I can to be her biggest fan
Red rover, red rover
Won't you send her on back over
I think I know what drove her away
So come on whiskey sour
Come around and lay me low
She's spendin' her nights under city lights
And I'm sure she ain't alone
But now Hollywood ain't callin' for me
And it don't look like she's fallin' for me
Them city girls and me
Now Hollywood ain't callin' for me
And it don't look like she's fallin' for me
Them city girls and me ain't meant to be
