A young boy out there hitching a ride
With songs in his pockets and stars in his eyes
Telling the folks back home that it's just begun
He'll be the lucky one
Young girl out there reading the trades
Of movie directors and promises made
Hoping to see her name on the silver screen
Just another dream
Hollywood heckle and jive
The weaker surrender, the stronger survive
City of the Angels, won't you please
Set me free
I've been working and I've been trying
To talk to the people on Sunset and Vine
I've been waiting so long for my ship to come in
Just need a lucky win
Time after time I've decided to stay
The dreams in my head, they just won't go away
Walking the streets and seeing the names in the lights
It's just another night
Hollywood heckle and jive
The weaker surrender, the stronger survive
City of the Angels, won't you please
Set me free
There's always somebody new in this crazy town
If someone goes up
That means somebody must go down
Hollywood heckle and jive
The weaker surrender, the stronger survive
City of the Angels, won't you please
Won't you please, won't you please
Shine a light, shine a light on me
