Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Takin' a dip on the Sunset Strip in the mornin'
Ain't nothin' like the smell of tofu and high dollar wine
Except maybe all of them cars lockin' down the I-5
I find it amazin', these rats I've been chasin'
Are helping me remember a time
[Verse 2]
When the only L.A. I knew
Was Lower Alabama
Back when me and Hannah
Was wishin' on a southern star
Now it's so complicated, I really hate it
Why'd I ever wanna go so far?
Takin' depression pills in the Hollywood Hills
Actin' like I'm playing the part
[Verse 3]
All this grippin' and grinnin', and bluesin' and winnin' and runnin'
And promises break like an egg on the hot asphalt
What the hell was I thinkin', drinkin' like I'd never get caught?
These high dollar woman and the fame and the fortune
Ain't worth the ticket I bought
[Verse 4]
When the only L.A. I knew
Was Lower Alabama
Back when me and Hannah
Was wishin' on a southern star
Now it's so complicated, I really hate it
Why'd I ever wanna go so far?
Takin' depression pills in the Hollywood Hills
Actin' like I'm playing the part
[Verse 5]
Takin' depression pills in the Hollywood Hills
Actin' like I'm playing the part
