Shooting Star
Bad Company

Johnny was a school boy when he heard his first Beatle 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 & roll outfit outfit and everything's all right
Don't you know?

Johnny told his mama, hey mama I'm goin' 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 good-bye

Don't you know? Don't you know?
Don't you know that you are a shooting star
Don't you know, know? Don't you know 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, know? Don't you know 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... A shooting star!

[Solo]

Don't you know that you are a shooting star
Don't you know, know? Don't you know 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 died one night, died in his bed
A 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

Don't you know? Don't you know?
Don't you know that you are a shooting star
Don't you know know? Don't you know know
Don't you know that you are a shooting star
I said a-doncha-doncha-doncha-doncha-don't you know
Don't you know that you are a shooting star
I said don't, I said doncha...
Don't you know that you are a shooting star
na-na-naa-naa na-naa-naa na-naa-naa na-naa-naa na-naa...
