Lyrics

Sadie made it down in hollywood

Sadie successfully made it to Hollywood.

She worked real hard and she did real good

She worked hard and achieved success.

Now the years are finally coming down

Now, after years of effort, she sees the results.

Oh, though she owns this whole town

Despite her success, she realizes the passage of time.


She's living and she's dying

She is experiencing both life and death.

She spent her whole time trying

Her life has been dedicated to constant striving.

Seems like even when you do it

Even when you achieve something, it may not be enduring.

Then you find out you can go right through it

Success can be fleeting.


Everybody needs a lover

Expressing the universal need for a romantic partner.

Everybody needs a friend

Emphasizing the importance of friendship.

Everybody needs a lover

Reiterating the need for love in life.

To keep them moving 'til the end

Love is crucial for enduring through life's challenges.


Stevie won it all in rock and roll

Stevie achieved success in the music industry.

Had it right down in his soul

His success was deeply ingrained in his soul.

Still has to face the day

Despite success, he still faces the challenges of life.

Oh, some blues won't play

Some difficulties, like certain blues, persist.


He's living and he's dying

Stevie, like Sadie, experiences the dual nature of existence.

He's spent his whole life trying

A lifetime spent in constant effort.

Seems like even when you do it

Success doesn't guarantee immunity from life's challenges.

Then you find out you can go right through it

Similar to line 9, success may not be permanent.


Everybody needs a lover

Reiteration of the universal need for a romantic partner.

Everybody needs a friend

Underlining the importance of friendship for everyone.

Everybody needs a lover

Highlighting the significance of love in life's journey.

To keep them moving 'til the end

Love is essential for enduring life's challenges.


Buy the papers and i read them all day

Engaging with the news but questioning its longevity.

Wonder when they're gonna blow it away

A sense of uncertainty and concern about the world.

Working hard just to keep myself sane

Working hard to maintain mental stability.

But some days it's all pain

Some days are filled with pain.


Everybody needs a lover

Reiteration of the universal need for romantic love.

Everybody needs a friend

Reiterating the importance of having friends in life.

Everybody needs a lover

Underscoring the significance of love for life's journey.

To keep them moving 'til the end

Love is necessary for navigating life until the end.
