Lyrics:
Sitting there strumming on my first guitar
Lot of big dreams in my head
Made up my mind I was a country star
But nobody knew it yet
I got a little gig with a local band
Made a lotta dollar bills
But couldn’t make enough to pay my rent
So had to take a day job against my will
Oh, God’s been laughing at me
Laughing so hard he could cry
He wrote every scene
In this fairy tale movie I call my life
Thought I was holdin’ the wheel
Till he snatched it outta’ my hands
Yea’ God’s been laughin’ at me you see
Ever since he heard my plans
I was making real money working 8 to 5
With a little left over to spend
A single man soaking up the party life
Buying drinks for all my friends
Then I met a pretty girl at the club one night
I wasn't looking for a lifetime thing
But that went wrong cuz it felt so right
I spent my last dollar on a diamond ring
Oh, God’s been laughing at me
Laughing so hard he could cry
He wrote every scene
In this fairy tale movie I call my life
Thought I was holdin’ the wheel
Till he snatched it outta’ my hands
Yea’ God’s been laughin’ at me you see
Ever since he heard my plans
I always told my baby about my crazy dreams
To make it as a music man
So she saved and bought me this brand new six string
She said let's hit the road, now here I am
Oh, God’s still laughing at me
Laughing so hard he could cry
He wrote every scene
In this fairy tale movie I call my life
I thought I was holdin’ the wheel
Till he snatched it outta’ my hands
Yea’ God’s been laughin’ at me you see
Ever since he heard my plans
Yea’ God’s been laughin’ at me you see
Ever since he heard my plans
