Across the desert and the mountains
With all the sunshine in their hands
But L .A., she's a hard one
And she sure knows what to do
Take your pride and your hunger
Twist them up and turn them
Contrary I found true love in Louisiana,
I found God up in Missouri
Hollywood's a painted woman,
but her words of love aren't true
And the valley just ain't home,
I left my folks just south of Tulsa
Lost a girl from Baton Rouge
Packed my guitar in my blue jean
Go out west and sing my tune
But full of bards and bright lights
They can make a grown man cry
Let those palm trees wave
Found true love in Louisiana
I found God up in Missouri
Hollywood's a painted wo man
But her words of love aren't true
And the valley just ain't home
When you're Oklahoma crew
I found true love in Louisiana,
I found that up in Missouri
Hollywood's a painted woman,
but her words of love aren't true
And the valley just ain't warm
