Shooting Star

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 'n' roll outfit and everything's all right [Bridge] Don't you know? [Verse 2] Johnny told his mama, "Hey, Mama, I'm goin' away I'm gonna hit the big time, gonna be a big star someday," yeah Mama came to the door with a teardrop in her eye Johnny said, "Don't cry, Mama," smiled and waved goodbye [Pre-Chorus] Don't you know? Yeah, yeah [Chorus] 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? [Post-Chorus] And all the world will love you just as long As long as you are [Verse 3] 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" [Pre-Chorus] Don't you know? Don't you know? [Chorus] 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 [Post-Chorus] And all the world will love you just as long As long as you are a shooting star [Guitar Solo] [Chorus] Don't you know that you are a shooting star? Don't you know? Yeah Don't you know that you are a shooting star? No [Post-Chorus] And all the world will love you just as long As long as you are [Verse 4] 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 [Pre-Chorus] Whoa, ooh, oh [Chorus] Don't you know that you are a shooting star? Don't you know? Yeah, don't you know? Don't you know that you are a shooting star? Don't you know? Yeah [Chorus] 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-oh that you are a shooting star? Yeah [Bridge] Whoa-ooh-oh, whoa Whoa-ooh, oh-oh, oh-oh, whoa Oh, oh, oh-whoa, oh, whoa, oh Woo! [Chorus] Don't you, don't you know that you are a shooting star? Don't you, don't you know? [Post-Chorus] Know, know, know, know, know [Outro] Know, know, know, know, know, know, know, know, know, know Know, know, know, know Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, woo Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, woo Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, woo Na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na, na Na, na, na, na, na, whoa, whoa
