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?
