Lyrics
Johnny was a schoolboy when he heard his first Beatles song
"Love Me Do" I think it was, and dear it didn't take him long
Got himself a guitar, used to play it every night
Now he's in a rock 'n' roll outfit, everything's alright
Don't you know?
Well, Johnny told his mama, "Hey mama, I'm going away
I'm gonna hit the big time, I'm gonna be a big star someday"
Mama came to the door with a teardrop in her eye
Johnny said, "Don't cry, mama," and smiled and waved goodbye
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?
All the world will love you just as long, long as you are
Johnny made a record, went straight up to number one
Suddenly everyone loved to hear him sing a song
Watching the world go by so bright and 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 that you are a shooting star?
Don't you know?
Don't you know that you are a shooting star?
All the world will love you just as long, long as you are
Don't you know that you are a shooting star?
Don't you know?
Don't you know that you are a shooting star?
All the world will love you just as long, long as you are
Don't you know that you are a shooting star?
Don't you know?
Don't you know that you are a shooting star?
All the world will love you just as long, long as you are
A shooting star
