I thoughr I saw Chuck E Weiss
Outside the viper room
But it was just some coon ass wannabe
Spitting at the moon
Is that Tom Waits in his Lincoln
Barrelling down Holywood Blvd?
Or was it just some dealer
Looking for somecards
When I went back to Hollywood
It seemed like a dream
No one I was there that I used to know
They all faded into moonbeams
The people there were all strangers to me
When I went back to Hollywood
all I found was an empty marquee
Hey, Is that Ron Davies on the stage
Of the Troubadour?
Tim Hardins in the audience
Calling out for more
John Prine is on the barstool
With his pen and ink
waiiting for Stevie Goodman
To show up and buy him a drink
Seems like I can still see all the ghosts
On Orange Grove
Virgil telling lies at Schwabs
And Duffys on his throne
Misty in the bathroom
Taking shots of Vitamin B
Morris shows up with one of Nicholsons whores
From the sex party
Ginger La Cola
giving Linda Ronstadt shit
Kicking her out of Barneys Beanery
Because she doest know where to sit
Why wont Gary Busey
Sing Buddy Holly anymore?
Did someone put a curse on him
Because he won an Academy Award?
