Jamey Johnson - Playing The Part lyrics

rate me

Taking a dip on the sunset strip in the mornin'

Ain't nothing like the smell of tofu and high dollar wine

They said maybe all of them cars locking down the I-5

Yeah I find it amazing these rats I've been chasing are helping me remember a time

When the only LA I knew was lower Alabama

Back when me and Hannah were wishing on a southern star

Now its so complicated, I really hate it, why'd I ever want to go so far

Taking depression pills in the Hollywood Hills

Acting like I'm playing the part

All this gripping and grinning, losing and winning, and running

Promises break like an egg on the hot asphalt

What the hell was I thinking, drinking like I'd never get caught

These high dollar women, and the fame and the fortune, ain't worth the ticket I bought

When the only LA I knew was lower Alabama

Back when me and Hannah were wishing on a southern star

Now its so complicated, I really hate it, why'd I ever want to go so far

Taking depression pills in the Hollywood Hills

Acting like I'm playing the part

Taking depression pills in the Hollywood Hills

Acting like I'm playing the part
