High Price Of Fame - Aaron Watson

As sad as the sound of an old steel guitar

A driftin' cowboy rode away with her heart

All the boozing' and using' Audrey couldn’t win for loosing'

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 singing this song I’m thinkin' bout you

Wondering is this worth all that I’ve put us through

All those highways and heartaches

All the mistakes that I made

Where’s the glitter and gold as the shadows unfold

Everyone knows my name but you pay the high price of fame
