Midland Will This Life Be As Grand
[Verse 1]
She packed her bags and left for Hollywood
To be the star I knew she could
She's been saving up for quite some time
Workin' down at that Five and Dime
We said goodbye on a warm spring night
I just stood there and watched those fading taillights
[Chorus]
'Cause you can hold your own
Against anybody I know
And stand right up to any man
And it's not that I'm afraid
You won't come back to me some day
It's just will this life be as grand?
[Verse 2]
I heard she found a place and settled in
Found some work and made some friends
And well there ain't much changed 'round here
I just drive my truck down to gеt some beer
[Chorus]
'Cause you can hold your own
Against anybody I know
And stand right up to any man
And it's not that I'm afraid
You won't come back to mе some day
It's just will this life be as grand?
[Bridge]
And if you need a place to hide away
If those city dreams ever start to fray
And if the busy sounds ever bring you down
You can find me in a small town
And girl I really do wish you the best
And I hope you find your happiness
And if you ever change your mind
You'll find that I been waiting here all the time
[Chorus]
'Cause you can hold your own
Against anybody I know
And stand right up to any man
And it's not that I'm afraid
You won't come back to me some day
It's just will this life be as grand?
[Outro]
And it's just will this life be as grand?
