Denton Road Lyrics by Michael Penn

Mr. Hollywood Jr., 1947

2005

I've heard people say they've come for miles
To pay their due respects
For mileage, each expects
"A pillar of community and style"
"At heart, a family man
Who'd had a change of plan"
Goodbye, Sally, Simi Valley
Denton Road, the Roosevelt Hotel
For my own farewell
And if you don't show, that's fine
What's it say about me that I'm bored?
Don't need another speech
To know I'm out of reach
Someone made a joke about the Lord
And somehow it relates
To a dash between the dates
Goodbye, Sally, Simi Valley
Denton Road, the Roosevelt Hotel
For my own farewell
And if you don't show, that's fine
I don't expect you to
You've got other things to do
In a life I now know
That I never really knew
The light are going out, they shut the lid
I guess I lost the thread
I'm in over my head
Goodbye, Sally, Simi Valley
Denton Road, the Roosevelt Hotel
For my own farewell
And if you don't show, that's fine
For my own farewell
And if you don't show, that's fine
