Song: Say Goodbye To Hollywood ~~ 1981 ~~ 4:25
Artist: Billy Joel
LP/CD: Songs In The Attic (Live) ~~ Columbia ~~ 1981
Composer: Billy Joel


Bobby’s driving through the city tonight
Through the lights in a hot new rent-a-car
He joins the lover in his heavy machine
It’s a scene down on Sunset Boulevard

Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby

Johnny’s taking care of things for awhile
And his style is so right for troubadors
They got him sittings with his back to the door
Now he won’t be my fast gun anymore

Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby

Moving on is a chance
You take every time you try to stay together, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh
Say a word out of line
You’ll find that the friends you had are gone forever, forever

Oh, oh, oh, oh

Moving on is a chance
You take every time you try to stay together, whoa, oh, whoa, oh, oh, oh
Say a word out of line
You’ll find that the friends you had are gone forever, forever

So many faces in and out of my life
Some will last, some will just be now and then
Life is a series of hellos and goodbyes
I’m afraid it’s time for goodbye again

Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby
Say goodbye to Hollywood
Say goodbye, my baby

Whoa, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Whoa, oh, oh, oh
