Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They're gonna put me in the movies
They're gonna make a big star outta me
We'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely
And all I gotta do is act naturally
[Chorus]
Well, I'll bet you I'm a-gonna be a big star
Might win an Oscar, you can't never tell
The movie's gonna make me a big star
'Cause I can play the part so well
[Verse 2]
Well, I hope you come see me in the movie
Then I'll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that's ever hit the big time
And all I gotta do is act naturally
[Chorus]
We'll make the scene about a man that's sad and lonely
And beggin' down upon his bended knee
I'll play the part but I won't need rehearsin'
All I have to do is act naturally
[Verse 3]
Well, I'll bet you I'm a-gonna be a big star
Might win an Oscar, you can't never tell
The movie's gonna make me a big star
'Cause I can play the part so well
[Chorus]
Well, I hope you come see me in the movie
By then I'll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that's ever hit the big time
And all I gotta do is act naturally
