Kevin Grant - Playing the Part lyrics

[Verse 1] Takin' a dip on the Sunset Strip in the mornin' Ain't nothin' like the smell of tofu and high dollar wine Except maybe all of them cars lockin' down the I-5 I find it amazin', these rats I've been chasin', are helpin' me remember a time [Chorus] When the only L.A. I knew Was lower Alabama Back when me and Hannah Was wishin' on a southern star Now it's so complicated, I really hate it Why'd I ever wanna go so far? Takin' depression pills in the Hollywood Hills Actin' like I'm playin' the part [Verse 2] All this grippin' an' grinnin', an' bluesin' an' winnin' an' runnin' And promises break like an egg on the hot asphalt What the hell was I thinkin', drinkin' like I'd never get caught? These high dollar women and the fame and the fortune, ain't worth the ticket I bought [Chorus] When the only LA I knew Was lower Alabama Back when me and Hannah Was wishin' on a southern star Now it's so complicated, I really hate it Why'd I ever wanna go so far? Takin' depression pills in the Hollywood Hills Actin' like I'm playin' the part [Outro] Takin' depression pills in the Hollywood Hills Actin' like I'm playin' the part
