Lyrics
They're gonna put me in the movies
They're gonna make a big star out of me
We'll make a film about a ridin', ropin' cowboy
And all I got to do is act naturally
Well, I bet you I'm a gonna be a big star
Might win an Oscar, you can never tell
The movie's gonna make me a big star
'Cause I can play the part so well
Well, I hope you come to see me in the movie
Then I'll know that you will plainly see
That I'm a cowboy bound to hit the big time
And all I got to do is act naturally
We'll make a scene about a brave and handsome cowboy
Roundin' up the bad guys, one, two, three
I'll play the part, and I won't need rehearsing
All I got to do is act naturally
Well, I bet you I'm a gonna be a big star
Might win an Oscar, you can never tell
The movie's gonna make me a big star
'Cause I can play the part so well
Well, I hope you come to see me in the movie
Then I'll know that you will plainly see
That I'm a cowboy bound to hit the big time
And all I got to do is act naturally
And all I got to do is act naturally
And all I got to do is act naturally
