Lyrics:

Johnny was a schoolboy when he heard his first Beatle song
'Love me do,' I think it was. 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, smile and wave good-bye'
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 the 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, oh, 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, now
And all the world will love you just as long, As long you are you
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
Oh oh oh, Don't you know that you are a shooting star
Don't you know, yeah, don't you know', 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
Don't you, don't you
Don't you, don't you
Don't you know, don't you
Know, oh, yeah, you are
Yeah, a shooting star, yeah, oh
Oh oh oh oh......
Don't you, don't you know
That you are a shooting star
Don't you don't you know......
