From my room, I see the blue Pacific Ocean
Yes my hotel has me right beside the shore
Well today it's San Francisco and tomorrow it's L.A.
And I feel as though I've been this way before
Well my woman helps my feet to keep on walkin'
But my manager he stands right outside the door
Yes there's an up ânâ comin' superstar & he's gettin' rave revues
But there ainât no time for fishinâ anymore
I never thought that things would go this far
I never thought that life would be this way
I never thought Iâd be a superstar
Oh Jesus Christ I wish that I was back in Oyster Bay
takinâ it easy... Oh yeah...
But thereâs lots of friendly folks that say âgood morningâ
But somehow you know I donât believe their smiles
I could be New York City bound where I could be among my friends
But the roller back home it seems a million miles
I can see the lights of Hollywood below me
But somehow they just donât move me like they should
I know itâs hard to understand but I would be a fisherman
If I only had the chance, you know I would
I never thought that things would go this far
I never thought that Iâd be here today
I never thought Iâd be a superstar
Oh and Jesus Christ I wish that I was back in Oyster Bay
takinâ it easy... Oh yeah...
Treating a hard long day, happy to be that way
Wanting it back sometimes, having some peace of mind
Treating a hard long day, happy to be that way
Wanting it back sometimes, having some peace of mind
Treating a hard long day, happy to be that way
Wanting it back sometimes, having some peace of mind
