Hollywood - Rick James

Mama, sit down for me please

Daddy, comfort her in this time of need

Your one and only son

Has got to get away

Before this ghetto life becomes

The death of me

Goodbye Mama, Goodbye Papa

I'm going to do good in Hollywood

Goodbye Mama, Goodbye Papa

I'm going to do good in Hollywood

Hollywood

You have always taught me

Right from wrong

You always told me

I could sing myself a song

Mom, I got to go,

It's a case of do or die,

Do or die

It's like you always told me,

Keep my head to the sky

Goodbye Mama, Goodbye Papa

I'm going to do good in Hollywood

Goodbye Mama, Goodbye Papa

I'm going to do good in Hollywood

Goodbye Mama, Goodbye Papa

I'm going to do good in Hollywood

Goodbye Mama, Goodbye Papa

I'm going to do good in Hollywood

Hollywood

You know, I've been dreaming

I've been looking

To the stars for light

Mom, I've been thinking about it

You know,

I've been thinking about it all my life,

All my life

And I've been hoping,

I've been hoping

One day I might go to Hollywood,

To Hollywood

Where the singers,

And the movie stars,

And the people, living mountains

And the sun shines all the time

Ain't nothing much, and I got to keep on

Keep on, keep on,

You're gonna make it good in Hollywood

Keep on, keep on,

You're gonna make it good in Hollywood

Keep on, keep on,

You're gonna make it good in Hollywood

Keep on, keep on,

You're gonna make it good in Hollywood

Keep on, keep on,

You're gonna make it good in Hollywood

Keep on, keep on,

You're gonna make it good in Hollywood

People keeping on,

Keeping on, and keeping on

Keep on, uh

Won't be long

Till I get there

Till I get there

Won't be long

I'm gon' be there

Lord knows I got to be right there

Won't be long and

Won't be long and

Won't be long and

Won't be long and

Won't be long and

Won't be long and

Won't be long and

Won't be long and

Till I get there
