I took my baby on a river boat cruise
And she was well aware
I was excited about the way
things could have been
Cause in it I don't care
I want a face no one can recognize
In disguise
Someone called out my name
They thought of taking pictures autographs
Then they grab
My joy has turned to pain
Father always told me
You won't live a quiet life
If you're reaching for fortune and fame
I feel the pressure setting in
I'm living just to win
I'm down in my pain
Don't you feelin' no pain
It's the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
So don't be feelin' no pain
It's the price of fame
It's the price of fame
So don't you ever complain
I'm on the cover of the magazine
What a scene
They know my every do's
Just sign your name on the dotted line
You'll be fine
That always bothers me
Get in your car you wanna take a ride
Look behind
Someone is following you
You try to get away you turn real fast
But too bad
They know your every move
My father always told me
You won't live a quiet life
If you're reaching for fortune and fame
I feel the pressure setting in
I'm living just to win
I bleed all this pain
Don't you ever complain
It's the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
So don't you ever complain
It's the price of fame
You pay the price for fame
So don't be feelin' no pain
It's the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
Father never lies my father never lies
My father never lies
So don't be feelin' this way boy
I'd like to take some time and get away
Then they'll say
Is that boy still alive
The week in village what a thrill
Only the strong survive
My father always told me
You won't live a quiet life
They startin' to wonderin' where
Have you been
I feel their envious looks at me
Their mistaken jealousy
Then stand here in my shoes
And then get a taste of my blues
It's the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
So don't you ever complain
It's the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
So don't be feelin' this way
It's the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
So don't you ever complain
It's the price of fame
You pay the price of fame
My Father never lies my father never lies baby
My father never lies
So don't be feelin' no pain boy
