Jimmy said its not easy being the king of the world,
Gets harder every day.
Somebody`s gotta do the job, ya know?
So it might as well be me.
Bought himself a one way ticket,
On a greyhound bus bound for Santa Fe,
Left everyone behind he`d ever known,
Just faded away...
Jimmy found himself,
A lover down in Hollywood.
He was a good man,
As far as good men go, I guess.
He sold system software for a high tech firm down in the valley,
She wrote him a letter,
It went a little something like this.
She said I had big dreams, big dreams don`t you know?
So hard to make these big dreams come true.
Now I try to hold on to what we had the best I could.
I find holdin on is the hardest thing to do.
Oh I ain`t comin home tonight,
So don`t wait up for me.
No I ain`t coming home tonight,
Well I`m finally free.
Was a guy that I met one night in a bar in Colorado,
He said, man I got a gift, more like a curse, I must confess.
Said I can remember everybody`s name that I`ve ever met before in my life,
So i said, name everybody in your first grade class, and he did, I guess.
And then imagine all those names,
Stretched out forever,
Like the rays of light,
From some long dead distant star.
And I thought to myself,
What have I done with this life of mine?
Besides finding myself in this smoke-filled bar,
And I said,
Oh I ain`t comin home tonight,
No don`t wait up for me.
No I ain`t comin home tonight,
Said I`m finally free,
I`m finally free.
