Little Jackie Wants To Be A Star Lyrics

Oh, Little Jackie (Little Jackie)

Alright



Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be a star



She got off a Greyhound in search of fortune and fame

Hopin’ to find a better way and leave her troubles behind

But little did she know that life was sometimes touch and go

Some never get it, open your eyes or you’ll learn to regret it



Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be a star

She’s caught in the middle (Of reality and what she’s dreamin’ of)

Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be a star

(Smack dab in the middle of) Oh, growin’ up



(Times Square) Is there where she makes it (Some people never get there)

Then she met a guy (So fine) but he wants to buy nothin’ but a $5 high

Jackie say no (He’ll try to change ya) or rearrange you (Or rearrange ya)

Remember what your mama done told ya, never ever take gifts from a stranger



Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be a star

She’s caught in the middle (Of reality and what she’s dreamin’ of)

Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be a star

(Smack dab in the middle of) Oh, growin’ up



I’m talkin’ bout

I said I’m talkin’ ‘bout Jackie

Oh, wah, wah, me

Oh, yeah



All that glitters ain’t gold (Don’t let the green eyes fool ya)

You’re only 16 years old (Don’t let the streets try to rule ya)

You never meant to be a runaway, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, ho

There’s got to be a better way today, today



Talkin’ about Jackie

(I believe ya, I believe ya)

(If you believe in yourself I really think you’re gonna make it)

Ho...ooh...oh...ooh...yeah

Talkin’ about Jackie

(I believe ya, I believe ya)

(If you believe in yourself I really think you’re gonna make it)

???



Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be a star

She’s caught in the middle (Of reality and what she’s dreamin’ of)

Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be a star

(Smack dab in the middle of) Oh (Growin’ up)



(I believe ya, I believe ya)

Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be a star

(If you believe in yourself I really think you’re gonna make it)

She’s caught in the middle (Of reality and what she’s dreamin’ of)



(I believe ya, I believe ya)

Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be, she wants to be a superstar

(If you believe in yourself I really think you’re gonna make it)

(Smack dab in the middle of growin’ up, ooh)



Woo...woo...woo...woo...woo...woo...

(Yeah)
