High Price Of Fame
As sad as the sound of an old steel guitar
A driftin' cowboy rode away with her heart
All the boozin'' and usin'
Audrey couldn't win for losin'
Left forever in the back of that Cadillac
Beautiful Jessie had only one flaw
Fallin' head over heels for a Texas outlaw
Puttin' up with Waymore took way more than she had
She was the good-hearted woman through the good and the bad
And all those highways and heartaches
All the mistakes a man makes
Where's the glitter and gold as the shadows unfold?
Everyone knows his name
But she pays the high price of fame
Johnny knew June was heaven sent
Was addicted and busted, heartbroken and bent
She was color and light to the dark side of his soul
Lovin' a man in black sometimes took its toll
And all those highways and heartaches
All the mistakes a man makes
Where's the glitter and gold as the shadows unfold?
Everyone knows his name
But she pays the high price of fame
As I'm singin' this song I'm thinkin' 'bout you
Wonderin' is this worth all that I've put us through?
And all those highways and heartaches
All the mistakes a man makes
Where's the glitter and gold as the shadows unfold?
Everyone knows my name
But she pays the high price of fame
