Nights fall hard on hollywood The stars don't come out like they should Up above the world so high tonight They can't outshine the neon lights Now the golden days are gone for good In esmeralda's hollywood She comes out when the sun is gone But she don't have to walk alone Cause once the darkness takes this town She ain't the only ghost around Waitin' by the public phone If it don't ring she heads back home Esmeralda, esmeralda girl, what are you waitin' for Esmeralda, esmeralda, can't hang around this place no more Searchlights rip the l.a. sky When you look in esmeralda's eyes The people come from miles around To see the kings and queens they crowned Behind the barricades they stood In esmeralda's hollywood Aw, wait until the sun goes down Listen for the lonely sound Esmeralda's hanging round No one shed a tear that day When esmeralda passed away All up and down the strip they say It was just like any other day The evil struggled with the good Down in esmeralda's hollywood
