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 '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? 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 '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? 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 '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? And it's just will this life be as grand?
