Standing in the rain, with his head hung lowCouldn’t get a ticket, it was a sold out showHeard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scenePut his ear to the wall, then like a distant screamHe heard one guitar, just blew him awayHe saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day
Bought a beat up six string, in a secondhand storeDidn’t know how to play it, but he knew for sureThat one guitar, felt good in his handsDidn’t take long, to understandJust one guitar, slung way down lowWas a one way ticket, only one way to goSo he started rockin’, ain’t never gonna stopGotta keep on rockin’, someday gonna make it to the top
And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyesHe’s a juke box heroHe took one guitar (juke box hero, stars in his eyes)Juke box hero, (stars in his eyes) he’ll come alive tonight
In a town without a name, in a heavy downpourThought he passed his own shadow, by the backstage doorLike a trip through the past, to that day in the rainAnd that one guitar, made his whole life changeNow he needs to keep on rockin’, he just can’t stopGotta keep on rockin’, that boy has got to stay on top
And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyesHe’s a juke box hero, got stars in his eyesYeah, juke box hero, stars in his eyesWith that one guitar (stars in his eyes)He’ll come alive, come alive tonight, woah
Yeah, he’s gotta keep on rockin’, just can’t stopGotta keep on rockin’, that boy has got to stay on top
And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyesHe’s a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes(Just one guitar) juke box hero, got stars in his eyesHow he’s just a juke box hero, aah aah aahJuke box (stars) hero, (stars, stars) juke box hero, (stars, stars)He’s got stars in his eyes, stars in his eyes
