They say people out in Hollywood
Live their life out in black and white
They're living out a technicolor dream
Next day they're a star overnight
Not like living in New York
Man, it's tougher
Not like in London town
Boy, you suffer
Nobody give a break
When you're down on your luck
Everybody's on the take
When you're down on your luck
You can't make a mistake
When you're down on your luck
People out in Hollywood
They got a lot of class
You see the boys strutting down the boulevard
Trying to make a pass
Not like in New York
It's high rise, it's concrete and complex
Not like in London town
It reigns down on its subjects
Nobody give a damn
When you're down on your luck
Nobody understands
When you're down on your luck
Lady Chance, she won't dance
When you're down on your luck
People out in Hollywood
They can make it to the stars
They can reach the screen
Drive around in big expensive convertible cars
Not like in New York
All you've got is Broadway
Not like in the west end of London
You can't make it no way
Nobody give a damn
When you're down on your luck
Nobody understands
When you're down on your luck
You've got to strut your stuff
When you're down on your luck
You can't take it easy, it ain't good enough
When you're down on your luck
Everybody's on the make
When you're down on your luck
Nobody give a fair deal
When you're down on your luck
Nobody understands my Uncle Sam
When you're down on your luck
I'm ready for the dance
When you're down on your luck
I gotta make a dollar holler
When you're down on your luck
Thin Lizzy is an Irish hard rock band formed in Dublin in 1969. The founding members were guitarist Eric Bell, organist Eric Wrixon, singer and bassist Philip Lynott, and drummer Brian Downey. The group achieved international fame in the 1970s with a sound characterized by powerful guitar riffs, catchy melodies, and lyrics often inspired by Irish mythology. Among their most famous songs are "The Boys Are Back in Town", "Jailbreak" and "Whiskey in the Jar". Lynott is considered an iconic figure of rock, known for his charisma and powerful voice. Thin Lizzy released numerous successful albums, including "Fighting" (1974), "Nightlife" (1974) and "Bad Reputation" (1977).
