"Act Naturally (Live)" lyrics
(originally by Buck Owens)
(And now
John Cowsill is gonna tell you where he's really at
John, lay it on)
They're gonna put me in the movies
They're gonna make a big star out of me
They'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely
And all I gotta do is act naturally
Well, I'll 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 and see me in the movie
Then I'll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time
'Cause all I gotta do is act naturally
Well, they'll make a scene about a man that's sad and lonely
He's begging down upon his bended knee
I'll play the part, and I won't need rehearsing
'Cause all I gotta to do is act naturally
Well, I'll 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 and see me in the movie
Then I'll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time
And all I have to do is act naturally
John Cowsill is gonna tell you where he's really at
John, lay it on)
They're gonna put me in the movies
They're gonna make a big star out of me
They'll make a film about a man that's sad and lonely
And all I gotta do is act naturally
Well, I'll 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 and see me in the movie
Then I'll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time
'Cause all I gotta do is act naturally
Well, they'll make a scene about a man that's sad and lonely
He's begging down upon his bended knee
I'll play the part, and I won't need rehearsing
'Cause all I gotta to do is act naturally
Well, I'll 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 and see me in the movie
Then I'll know that you will plainly see
The biggest fool that ever hit the big time
And all I have to do is act naturally
