Juke Box Hero

Standing in the rain with his head hung low
Couldn't get a ticket, it was a sold-out show
Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream
He heard one guitar, just blew him away
He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day
Bought a beat up six-string, in a second-hand store
Didn't know how to play it, but he knew for sure
That one guitar felt good in his hands, didn't take long to understand
Just one guitar, swung way down low
Was a one way ticket, only one way to go
So he started rocking, ain't never gonna stop
Gotta keep on rocking, someday gonna make it to the top
And be a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes), he's a juke box hero
He took one guitar (juke box hero, got stars in his eyes)
Juke box hero, he'll come alive tonight
In a town without a name, in a heavy down port
Thought he'd cast his own shadow by the backstage door
Like a trip through the past, from that day in the rain
That one guitar played his whole life chain
Now he needs to keep rocking, he just can't stop
Gotta keep on rocking, that boy has got to stay on top
And be a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes)
He's a juke box hero
Yeah a juke box hero
That one guitar, he'll come alive, come alive tonight
Yeah, he's gotta keep rocking, he just can't stop (he just can't stop)
Gotta keep on rocking, that boy has got to stay on top
He's gonna be a juke box hero (got stars in his eyes)
He's a juke box hero, yeah
And just one guitar (juke box hero) put stars in his eyes
Yeah he's just a juke box hero
Juke box hero, juke box hero, he's got stars in his eyes
Stars in his eyes
