Price Of Fame

I took my baby on a river boat cruiseAnd she was well awareI was excited about the way the things could have beenAs in if I don't careI want a face no one can recognize, in disguiseSomeone called out my nameThey thought of taking pictures, autographs, then they grabMy joy had turned to painFather always told me'You won't live a quiet life'If you're reaching for fortune and fameI feel the pressure setting inI'm living just to winI'm down in my painDon't you feelin' no pain?It's the price of fameYou pay the price of fameSo don't be feelin' no painIt's the price of fameIt's the price of fameSo don't you ever complainI am a cover of a magazine, what a sceneThey know my every do's'Just sign your name on the dotted line, you'll be fine'That always bothers meGet in your car, you wanna take a ride, look behindSomeone is following youYou try to get away you turn with that, but too badThey know your every moveFather always told me'You won't live a quiet life'If you're reaching for fortune and fameAnd I feel the pressure setting inI'm living just to winI bleed in all this painDon't you ever complain?It's the price of fameYou pay the price of fameSo don't you ever complainIt's the price of fameYou pay the price of fameSo don't be feelin' no pain?It's the price of fameYou pay the price of fameFather never liesMy father never liesMy father never liesSo don't be feelin' this way, boyI like to take sometime and get away, then they'll sayIs that boy still alive?The weak reveals he started taking pills, what a thrillOnly the strong surviveFather always told me'You won't live a quiet life'They start to wonderin' where have you beenI feel their envious looks at meTheir mistaken jealousyThen stand here in my shoesAnd get a taste of my bluesIt's the price of fameYou pay the price of fameSo don't you ever complainIt's the price of fameYou pay the price of fameSo don't be feelin' this wayIt's the price of fameYou pay the price of fameSo don't you ever complainIn the price of fameYou pay the price of fameMy father never lies (Price of fame)My father never lies, babyMy father never lies (Price of fame)So don't be feelin' no pain, boy
