[00:05.33]Honey, when I brought you here
[00:08.43]You said that you would sing
[00:11.08]You said that you would wing your way to fortune and fame
[00:16.96]Now, I’ve given everything
[00:20.22]To keep you warm and clean
[00:22.67]I didn’t bat an eye when you changed your name
[00:27.72]I’m getting tired of hearing people call you someone else
[00:33.16]I’m getting used to seeing you go in the morning
[00:37.60]And eating supper by myself
[00:40.77]Now, this Hollywood producer
[00:44.93]Has offered you the world
[00:47.76]He lets you drive his sporty new Camaro
[00:52.86]Wonder just how many girls he’s told that story to
[00:59.01]How many dreams have gone away in sorrow?
[01:04.69]I’m getting tired of biting my nails and pumping gasoline
[01:09.63]I’m getting tired of waiting for you to figure out
[01:14.12]Why this city is unclean
[01:17.07]Mae Jean
[01:20.12]Run back home with me
[01:22.93]And I’ll go back to working on your daddy’s farm
[01:28.84]Mae Jean
[01:32.13]Run back home with me
[01:34.89]This wicked city’s bound to do us harm
[01:40.29]Now, all this time I’ve helped you
[01:43.59]With your promising career
[01:46.16]I’ve never said one word about your singing
[01:51.56]I just want to let you know that you’ll still be my star
[01:57.33]If you say goodbye for good to Hollywood
[02:00.84]And do your singing in the shower
[02:03.84]Mae Jean
[02:07.12]Run back home with me
[02:09.87]Back to where the air is clear and free
[02:15.39]Mae Jean
[02:19.00]Run back home with me
[02:21.65]If this city doesn’t get us first, it’s gonna sink into the sea
