Ray Wylie Hubbard feat. Steve Earle - Hellbent For Leather
текст песни

The fly by night carnival is closing down
Time to get off this merry go round
Kids and rubes have left the fairgrounds
The rock and roll gypsies are getting' out of town

Northeastern Oklahoma is calling my name
Gettin' off the grid and the old shell game
Gonna transcend like Henry David Thoreau
And listen to sweetheart of the rodeo

So long city of angels
Goodbye Sunset and Vine
I'm leaving for Oklahoma
Adios Hollywood sign

The Warners record deal fell apart in L.A
The technicolor life turned battleship grey
It was like I was Daniel in the lion's den
Except no spirit appeared to save my skin

So I'm leaving here with the girl who shimmies
With her black eye liner and her handful of gimme
Taking a twin reverb with two blown speakers
Wearing my John Varvatos converse sneakers

So long city of angels
Goodbye Sunset and Vine
I'm leaving for Oklahoma
Adios Hollywood sign

Gram Parsons was right about the thirty-first floor
The earth is shaking and I can't take it no more
So I'm heading due east hellbent for leather
Might even get the band back together

So long city of angels
Goodbye Sunset and Vine
I'm leaving for Oklahoma
Adios Hollywood sign
