Down In Hollywood — Ry Cooder chords
Start Jamming...
Well, did you hear the good news?
There's gonna be some bad blues.
Somebody said they'd play all night long.
So go and fill your brown bag and put on all your clean rags.
Let's go down town and see what's going on.
You take me down to Vine Street.
Stop when you hear the bat.
And I'll sneak past the bouncer at the door.
Now I know that he ain't looking.
Not when the band is cooking.
Because he's watching the ladies dancing on the floor.
We're going down in [C] Hollywood.
Better hope that you don't run out again.
And kick the ass in Hollywood.
They're standing on the corner just waiting for a sucker like you.
Down in Hollywood.
Now if you want to stay healthy, just keep moving right along the room.
Be careful.
Don't look back.
Keep moving.
Keep moving.
Well, the scotch has started flowing.
And some girl, she is showing everything she's got.
Oh, she's exciting.
Some men would give a week's pay if she would stand down.
There, we're hitting the safe.
Baby, I'm going to take you home with me tonight.
Now, outside the streets are shaking.
And I hear windows breaking.
Some poor fool is going to land in jail tonight.
All the hookers trying to pull your coat.
Now, you're in the street shelter cutting your throat.
Ain't no way out of here without a fight.
Down in Hollywood.
Better hope that you don't run out again.
Down in Hollywood.
You better get right on the couch.
Shake that ass.
Down in [G] Hollywood.
There [C] is no sucker like you.
[C] Down in Hollywood.
Now, if you want to stay healthy, just keep moving [G] right along the room.
[C]
Wow, you know, you're going to get arrested the way those pants fit around your thighs.
Oh, come back, honey.
Don't leave now.
[F] Hey, bud.
[C] Come here.
Let me talk to you for a second.
Give me that gun.
[D] And so they turned the case.
[Eb] This [C] guy's a mess.
Well, he's just a fucking clown.
He came out like a car.
Well, his mama told him not to go.
And his sister told him to.
But the poor boy just did this. Life.
Yeah, it was too bad.
They hitchhiked all the way from Burbank.
Now he's going to end up in the drunk tank.
Some old man said.
Yeah, well, it's just we go down in Hollywood.
Down in Hollywood.
Hope that you don't run out again.
Down in Hollywood.
You just like your car and literally kick your ass.
Down in Hollywood.
There is no sucker like you.
Down in Hollywood.
Well, I just want to say, help you just keep moving right on through.
For true.
Man, I'm telling you.
Oh, shut up.
Oh, they'll do anything that'll load out Hollywood.
Be in a world of trouble now.
Lord have mercy.
[Bb]
