Little Jackie Wants to Be a Star

[Intro: Lisa Lisa] Oh, little Jackie (Little Jackie) Alright Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star [Verse 1: Lisa Lisa, Lisa Lisa & Full Force] She got off a Greyhound In search of fortune and fame Hopin' to find a better way And leave her troubles behind But little did she know That life was sometimes touch-and-go Some never get it Open your eyes or you'll live to regret it [Chorus: Lisa Lisa, Full Force, Both] Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star She's caught in the middle (Of reality and what she's dreamin' of) Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star (Smack dab in the middle of) Oh, of growin' up [Verse 2: Lisa Lisa, Full Force, Both] (Times Square) Is this where she makes it? (Some people never get there) Then she met a guy (So fine) But he wants to buy nothin' but a five-dollar high Jackie, say no (He'll try to change ya) Or rearrange ya (Or rearrange ya) Remember what your mama done told ya Never ever take gifts from a stranger [Chorus: Lisa Lisa, Full Force] Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star She's caught in the middle (Of reality and what she's dreamin' of) Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star (Smack dab in the middle of) Oh, of growin' up [Post-Chorus: Lisa Lisa] I'm talkin' 'bout, I said I'm talkin' 'bout Jackie, woah Oh, woah-woah, yeah, oh, yeah [Bridge: Lisa Lisa & Full Force] All that glitters ain't gold (Don't let the green grass fool ya) You're only sixteen years old (Don't let the streets try to rule ya) You never meant to be a runaway Oh, no-no-no, no, no, no-oh There's got to be a better way today, today Talkin' about Jackie (I believe ya, I believe ya) (If you believe in yourself, I really think you're gonna make it) Oh, ooh, yeah, talkin' about Jackie (I believe ya, I believe ya) (If you believe in yourself, I really think you're gonna make it) If you get my meanin', then you better get the feelin', yeah, yeah [Chorus: Lisa Lisa, Full Force, Both] Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star She's caught in the middle (Of reality and what she's dreamin' of) Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star (Smack dab in the middle of) Oh, of growin' up (I believe ya, I believe ya) Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star (If you believe in yourself, I really think you're gonna make it) She's caught in the middle (Of reality and what she's dreamin' of) (I believe ya, I believe ya) Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be, she wants to be a superstar (If you believe in yourself, I really think you're gonna make it) (Smack dab in the middle of) (Growin' up, woo!)
