Hollywood Boots Lyrics

Maybe you were doing the best you could do

Knowing that you got to live your life too

Never want to cause you any pain

Or see you caught stranded in the rain

Never gave up, I know you tried

Watched it during the hardest of times

When only on yourself, could you rely

Ya never needed no alibi

Didn't have to explain a thing to me

I'm thinking I was raised a little differently

A lotta bit older, I'm trying to figure it out

What the hell life's all about

Sometimes we have to deal with the past

If we're ever gonna find some peace, at last

But it's never gonna change who I am

I'm always gonna be your Boogie Woogie man

It can't get any more grass roots

Let me slip into these Hollywood boots

Looking for the truth so that it can move me

But I'm always gonna be Boogie Woogie

It can't get any more grass roots

Let me slip into these Hollywood boots

Looking for the truth so that it can move me

But I'm always gonna be Boogie Woogie

I meant it when I said you were a hero to me

Put it down on paper so eloquently

Shed a tear when you read the page

When chaos came around, I had to keep it away

It doesn't change the love that I feel for you

No way shape or form do I want to be uncouth

It's just a conversation, not an attack

I never could put a rose lens on the facts

A lot of things been said, what happened to me

What happened to you, what happened to us

Explanations aren't a must, it's just an expectation that I need to adjust

It can't get any more grass roots

Let me slip into these Hollywood boots

Looking for the truth so that it can move me

But I'm always gonna be Boogie Woogie

It can't get any more grass roots

Let me slip into these Hollywood boots

Looking for the truth so that it can move me

But I'm always gonna be

I'm the boogie woogie, woogie, woogie man

Like an ostrich always putting my head in the sand

When there's drama run away just as fast as I can

They calling it a flaw, wouldn't expect them to understand

I have failed so many times on my way to be a man

Well would you look at me now, here I am

Head held high, not cause I couldn't, cause I can

I'm still the boogie woogie man

But I'm feeling guilty for these inconvenient truths

While I'm writing songs, bringing back my youth

What in the hell do I really have to lose

Do you think this is the choice I chose to choose

It doesn't matter what the world thinks of me

Please tell that to my brain when I'm trying to sleep

I'm not sure my mind is buying what my heart is trying to sell

Try to please people, overthink the fails

Certain memories are like demons in my crawlspace

Should I exorcise them or greet them with a warm embrace

I've said it once before, but I'll say it twice again

I'll always be your boogie woogie man

Boogie woogie

Boogie woogie

Boogie woogie man

Boogie woogie man

Boogie woogie

Boogie woogie man

Boogie woogie

Boog, Boog Boog, boogie, boogie woogie

Boogie woogie man

Boogie woogie man
