Hollywood Town Lyrics

Manfred Mann Hollywood Town

Down, down in Hollywood Town the lost and found come to find their way,
walkin' outside, feelings they hide, putting their pride through well
known paces Steppin' on stars and shining on cars passin' by, their
heads are high but their hearts are lowdown draggin' as they go reachin'
out to those other faces.
Down, down in Hollywood Town the good time sounds are heard all day but
the nighttime's commin', you're on your own, lookin' for a place someone
to share with.  Waiting in queues to hear the blues, to find a way from
the emptiness, to be found inside from those who try, to climb to the
image of the TV good guy.
Stranger I know you, we learned to walk together, lovers, wondering
wheather we really are.  I'd like to show you images of sister brother
standing off from one another but not very far.
Down, down in Hollywood Town, the lost and found come to find their way,
walkin' outside, feelings they hide, putting their pride through well
known paces.  Steppin' on stars and shining on cars passing by, their
heads are high but their hearts are lowdown, draggin' as they go,
reachin' out to those other faces.
(Harriet Schock)
