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
