Boulevard of broken dreams


Bob Corbin (Bro N' Sis, BMI; Coljes, BMI)1995

Well, they call me Hollywood, out on the street

I'll be your guide tonight, the boulevard's my beat

Gonna meet a lotta hustlers, who wanta make the big score

Take a ride with me, I'll give you the tour

Life is hard here and nothin's ever like it seems

Down on the boulevard, the boulevard of broken dreams

Sally, she's a dancer, down at the Lightnin' Bar

They put dollars down her g-string, while she dreams she's a star

Billy's a bouncer, he writes books on the side

But he's gotta use his muscle to keep the drunks in line

Life is hard here...

Old Piano Jack, playin' barrell-house blues

He says the style's comin' back and he believes it's true

Lisa's an actress, that what she tells me

From the johns I've seen her with, I guess she'd have to be

Life is hard here...

If you're wonderin' who I am , I'm the one to blame

You can call me Hollywood, though I have many names

I'm the one who lures you, from the cities and the towns

I'm the man behind the curtain, shoutin' A come on down

Life is hard here...

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
