Shooting Star

Lyrics for Shooting Star

Johnny was a schoolboy When he heard his first Beatles song "Love Me Do", I think it was And from there, it didn't take him long Got himself a guitar Used to play every night Now he's in a rock and roll outfit And everything's all right Don't ya know Johnny told his mama Hey, mama, I'm going away I'm gonna hit the big time Gonna be a big star someday Mama came to the door With a teardrop in her eye Johnny said, "don't cry, mama" "Smile and wave goodbye" Don't you know (yeah, yeah) Don't you know That you are a shooting star Don't you know, don't you know Don't you know that you are A shooting star And all the world will love you Just as long, as long as you are Johnny made a record Went straight up to number one Suddenly everyone loved to hear him sing his song Watching the world go by Surprising it goes so fast Johnny looked around him and said "Well, I made the big time at last" Don't you know Don't you know Don't you know That you are a shooting star Don't you know, whoa, yeah Don't you know that you are A shooting star, yeah And all the world will love you Just as long, as long as you are A shooting star Don't you know That you are a shooting star Don't you know, ooh Don't you know that you are A shooting star And all the world will love you Just as long, as long as you are Johnny died one night Died in his bed Bottle of whiskey, sleeping tablets By his head Johnny's life passed him by Like a warm summer day If you listen to the wind You can still hear him play Ooh Don't you know that you are a shooting star Don't you know, don't you know Don't you know that you are a shooting star Don't you know Don't you know that you are a shooting star Don't you, don't you, don't you, don't you Don't you know, don't you Know, oh, that you are A shooting star, yeah Ooh, ooh, ooh, woo Don't you, don't you know That you are a shooting star Don't you, don't you know
