Halfway To Hollywood (guitar/vocal)

Lyrics

Halfway to Hollywood It's 1500 miles or more to where the sandy shores meet the California sun... In my mind I can see her now... The top is down and she's singing that damned ole song... She's an American girl... with stars in her eyes and runaway dreams... She took her cat, her guitar, and just the clothes on her back... But she left with my everything... She must be halfway to Hollywood...by now... She never really understood how... I could spend my whole life kickin around.. This backwards backwoods town... She must be halfway to Hollywood by now I bet ya if I left right now...put hammer down.. I'd catch up to her by dawn.. Or I could sit right here and kick myself Every time somebody puts Tom Petty on But I'm a small town guy ..my roots run deep Hell I love the life I know... If its so damn easy ...for her ..to up and leave.. Then why should I just up and go... She must be halfway to Hollywood...by now... She never really understood how... I could spend my whole life kickin around.. This backwards backwoods town... She must be halfway to Hollywood by now Can't say I blame the girl She said someday I'd see her name in lights But there's stars enough for me right here... burning up this Oklahoma sky... I could ring her cell ..but she knows me well enough to know I wont.. Guess....it's all right if she loves me...it's all right if she don't She must be halfway to Hollywood...by now... She never really understood me anyhow... I'll be just fine here kickin around The streets of my home town.. She must be halfway to Hollywood by now... It's 1500 miles or more to where the sandy shores meet the California sun...
