David Lee Murphy - She Always Said lyrics

(David Lee Murphy/Kim Tribble)

She left town with the guitar man

From the Delta Outlaws hillbilly band

They played the Elks and the Eagles club

The VFW and the Holiday Inn

No matter what big stories he told her

This little town was too small to hold her

She always said she had to get out of here

Had to get outta this place

She always had her heart set on Hollywood

Heaven knows she had the face

There wasn't nothin' that she couldn't do

Once she got the thought in her head

I'm here ‘til I'm gone

And that's what she always said

Well she left him with a heart broke grin

On a first class flight outta New Orleans

Her plane disappeared as he was wavin' goodbye

He could only imagine she was wavin' at him

But he's not the first and he won't be the last

She would've told him but he didn't ask

She always said she had to get out of here

Had to get outta this place

She always had her heart set on Hollywood

Heaven knows she had the face

There wasn't nothin' that she couldn't do

Once she got the thought in her head

I'm here ‘til I'm gone

And that's what she always said

She ain't the kind to let herself

Be tied down to anything

I know I didn't wanna listen

Anytime she started talkin' that way

She always said she had to get out of here

Had to get outta this place

She always had her heart set on Hollywood

Heaven knows she had the face

There wasn't nothin' that she couldn't do

Once she got the thought in her head

I'm here ‘til I'm gone

And that's what she always said
