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
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 yeah
Mama came to the door
with a teardrop in her eye
Johnny said Don't cry Mama
smiled and waved 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 Yeah
Don't you know that you
are a shooting star No
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
Whoa ooh oh

are a shooting star
