Back before I [D] was a movie star, straight [A] off of the farm, I had a [E] picture of another man's
wife [A] tattooed on my arm.
With a pack [D] of Camel cigarettes in the sleeve [A] of my T-shirt, I'm heading [E] out to Hollywood
just to have [A] my feelings heard.
That town will [D] make you crazy, just give it a [A] little time.

You'll be waiting [D] on a phone call at the wrong end [A] of a broom.
Yes, that town [E] will make you crazy, crazy [A] as a loon.
