Lyrics Mae Jean Goes to Hollywood - The Byrds

Honey, when I brought you here
You said that you would sing
You said that you would wing your way to fortune and fame
Now, I′ve given everything
To keep you warm and clean
I didn't bat an eye when you changed your name
I′m getting tired of hearing people call you someone else
I'm getting used to seeing you go in the morning
And eating supper by myself
Now, this Hollywood producer
Has offered you the world
He lets you drive his sporty new Camaro
Wonder just how many girls he's told that story to
How many dreams have gone away in sorrow?
I′m getting tired of biting my nails and pumping gasoline
I′m getting tired of waiting for you to figure out
Why this city is unclean
Mae Jean
Run back home with me
And I'll go back to working on your daddy′s farm
Mae Jean
Run back home with me
This wicked city's bound to do us harm
Now, all this time I′ve helped you
With your promising career
I've never said one word about your singing
I just want to let you know that you′ll still be my star
If you say goodbye for good to Hollywood
And do your singing in the shower
Mae Jean
Run back home with me
Back to where the air is clear and free
Mae Jean
Run back home with me
If this city doesn't get us first, it's gonna sink into the sea
