Merle Haggard It’s All in the Movies Lyrics
They were so much in love with life, happy in every way
But love the movie began with, some how got lost in the play
Like a fire burning out of control,
You got caught up in the actor’s role,
And you cried on my shoulder when it came to an end
But that’s all in the movies,
It won’t happen to you and I
That’s all in the movies so baby don’t cry
It’s all in the movies
It won’t happen to us I know
It’s all in the movies,
Just a bad picture show
That’s all in the movies
It won’t happen to you and I
That’s all in the movies so baby don’t cry
It’s all in the movies
It can happen to us I know
It’s all in the movies,
Just a bad picture show
