I'm calling up my Cheri 
Tell her that I'm gonna leave
Cause I'm movin' on 
To Hollywood you see.

It's always been a life long dream
For my family 
To see me 
On that silver screen

And I know I can't go wrong
Cause I finally found my song
I'm headin' where I belong
Hollywood. Hollywood.

I know there's something in store for me
Nothing like the tragedies 
That have seen me through 
In real life you see

Next time that you see me
I'll be done with misery
I'll be shinnin' bright
For all the world to see

And I know I can't go wrong
Cause I finally found my song
I'm headin' where I belong
Hollywood. Hollywood.

I know that something's there for me
I'm flying free

That's why I'm calling up my Cheri 
Tell her that I'm gonna leave
Cause dreams are free 
In Hollywood you see

And I know I can't go wrong
Cause I finally found my song
I'm headin' where I belong
Hollywood. Hollywood

And I know I can't go wrong
Cause I finally found my song
I'm headin' where I belong
Hollywood.
