Kenny Chesney - Big Star Lyrics

She was aware of her insecurities as she took the stage
She was convinced if she got up there
That she'd be discovered some day
So she belted it, She hit the high notes fearlessly
Oh, She melted them, as she brought them to their feet

She was a big star at Banana Joe's Bar
Where she sang karaoke everynight
She said if you work hard to get where you are
It feels good in the hot spotlight
She was a big star


She made the local cable shows
Where the camera fell in love with her face
After a couple of weekends
The groupies were crawling all over the place
She signed autographs, like she was Garth Brooks in a skirt
And in the aftermath
That small time town was hers

She was a big star at Banana Joe's Bar
Where she sang karaoke everynight
She said if you work hard to get where you are
It feels good in the hot spotlight
She was a big star

She doesn't care anymore
That her high school girl friends cut her down
The only thought she entertains is where they are
And where she is now

Her old neighbors swear they're certain
She slept her way to the top
She knows you don't get where you're goin'
Unless you've got something they ain't got

So she sings tonight
To 20 thousand plus
And the young girls scream out loud,
"Man that could be us"

She's a big star
And she eats caviar
Just before she performs every night
She says if you work hard to get where you are
It feels good in the hot spotlight
She's a big star
