Lyrics
ANOTHER FALL FROM GRACE BY ANDY BUDD
He wanted fame and fortune, so he learned to play the game / He hit it big a few years back, you'd recognize the name / But it was money driven music it all sounded the same / When he tried a new direction don't ya know they changed the game / Singin for the people that's all he's ever known / Now he's just another one who fell from grace on Music row.
JUST ANOTHER "USED-TO-BE" / ANOTHER FALL FROM GRACE / WITH THE SELF-ANNOITED GATEKEEPERS OF CONTEMPORARY TASTE / THE MAJOR LABELS SHUT HIM OUT , HE WAS EASY TO REPLACE, / NOW HE'S JUST ANOTHER USED TO BE, ANOTHER FALL FROM GRACE
They shut down the music machine , now he's going it alone / No back up band or manager, the money's touch and go / So, he takes the local stages with just a couple of old guitars / And he's singing his own material, in honky tonks and bars / But it's all about the music, he doin' what he loves / He says "it's better to be has been than to die a never was
JUST ANOTHER "USED-TO-BE" / ANOTHER FALL FROM GRACE / WITH THE SELF-ANNOITED GATEKEEPERS OF CONTEMPORARY TASTE / THE MAJOR LABELS SHUT HIM OUT , HE WAS EASY TO REPLACE, / NOW HE'S JUST ANOTHER USED TO BE, ANOTHER FALL FROM GRACE
So if you want fame and fortune, you'll have to play their game / Play that money driven music don't ya know it all sounds the same
JUST ANOTHER "USED-TO-BE" / ANOTHER FALL FROM GRACE / WITH THE SELF-ANNOITED GATEKEEPERS OF CONTEMPORARY TASTE / THE MAJOR LABELS SHUT HIM OUT , HE WAS EASY TO REPLACE, / NOW HE'S JUST ANOTHER USED TO BE, ANOTHER FALL FROM GRACE
