Roger Clyne & The Peacemakers - City Girls lyrics

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 And now, moonlight hits a squad car I got a head full of bootleg, a gut full of bu*terflies A ringing in my ears, and a sting in my eye Well 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 Riding them silver wings, all perfumed up And saying pretty things So live and learn, let me burn, and I'll admit when I'm beat 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 I think I know what drove her away So come on whiskey sour 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...(Repeat)
