Strum
D-DU-UDU
Hollywood ain't calling for me,
and it don't look like she's falling for me.
Well, city girls and me ain't meant to be.
I Got caught sippin' moonshine, from a mayonnaise jar,
shuffle shuffle
and now, moonlight hits a squad car.
I got a head full of bootleg, a gut full of butterflies,
shuffle
A ringing in my ears, and a sting in my eye.
And the city took away my girl today,
for the lights and the money.
She said "Well that's the showbiz honey."
But now, Hollywood ain't calling for me,
and it don't look like she's falling for me.
Well, city girls and me ain't meant to be.
So now she's leaving for California,
shuffle
riding them silver wings, all perfumed up.
shuffle
And saying pretty things.
So live and learn, let me burn, and I'll admit when I'm beat.
shuffle
If I'm an angry young man, Well lord weren't you sweet.
I was working on my looks, Reading all her books.
And doing the best I can, to be her biggest fan.
But now, Hollywood ain't calling for me,
and it don't look like she's falling for me.
Well, city girls and me...
Red rover, red rover,
Won't you send her on back over.
shuffle
I think I know what drove her away.
So come on whiskey sour.
shuffle
Come around and lay me low.
She's spending her nights under city lights,
and I'm sure she ain't alone.
But now, Hollywood ain't calling for me,
and it don't look like she's falling for me.
Well, city girls and me...
Hollywood ain't calling for me,
and it don't look like she's falling for me.
Well, city girls and me ain't meant to be.
