text: As sad as the sound of an old steel guitar
  A driftin cowboy rode away with her heart
  All the boozin and usin
  Audrey couldnt 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
  Wheres 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
  Wheres the glitter and gold as the shadows unfold?
  Everyone knows his name
  But she pays the high price of fame
  As Im singin this song Im thinkin bout you
  Wonderin is this worth all that Ive put us through?
  And all those highways and heartaches
  All the mistakes a man makes
  Wheres the glitter and gold as the shadows unfold?
  Everyone knows my name
  But she pays the high price of fame
