Price of Fame

A thousand miles on a lonely road

Chasin' a song on the radio

Takin' a chance before the chance is gone

Grab a shootin' star, do your best to hang on

'Cause the price of fame's an expensive thing

Wasted youth on booze and smoky bars

Covered up the pain with the tattoos and scars

Hardened up your heart just to survive

You oughta sell your soul just to get by

The price of fame's an expensive thing

You're gonna pay if you play this game, boy

All these dreams, no, they don't come cheap

Everything you sow, you may never reap

The price of fame's an expensive thing

The price of fame's an expensive thing

There's a whole lot of me that I've had to give away

But there's so much more I won't let 'em take

I've lived through the fire, paid for my mistakes

I might bend, but I'm never gonna break, 'cause

The price of fame's an expensive thing

You're gonna pay if you play this game, boy

All these dreams, no, they don't come cheap

Everything you sow, you may never reap

The price of fame's an expensive thing

The price of fame's an expensive thing
