Oh, come on, here it goes      He was an underdog, a no threat   A NASCAR jockey, a rookie, a wannabe   Still wet behind the ears, a red-line revver   Just a-jammin' his gears, there are those that are   An' those that ain't the quickest get stickers   He was nothin' but paint, chartreuse paint      Big race, now we cut to the last ten laps   Here comes Junior, sneakin' up   From the back of the pack with fire in his eyes   Wavin' out the window as he passes 'em by   The tension mounts now he's number two   All out of rubber an' runnin' on fumes   It's door to door, outta turn four   He sees those chequers an' he hears that roar      An' the crowd goes wild   An' the crowd goes wild   You're shinin' like a superstar, baby   An' the crowd goes wild      He played the honky-tonks, the roadside bars   A real humdinger, a blue-eyed singer   With a red guitar around his neck payin'   Payin' them dues by starvin' to death   But he told his Momma every time he came back   "One of these days I'm gonna buy you   A big long Cadillac an' get you outta this shack"      Then he hit the road, frontin' the band   Six long hairs bobbin' up an' down   In a Chevy van, all beat up   He did a lotta givin' but he never gave up   Then one night, he wrote a song   Made a little record; started catchin' on   Now it's coliseums, he's all the rage   The lights go down when he hits the stage      An' the crowd goes wild   An' the crowd goes wild   You're shinin' like a superstar, baby   An' the crowd goes wild   (You're shinin' like a superstar)      An' the crowd goes wild   An' the crowd goes wild   You're shinin' like a superstar, baby   An' the crowd goes wild   (You're shinin' like a superstar)      An' the crowd goes wild   (You're shinin' like a superstar, baby)   An' the crowd goes wild   (You're shinin' like a superstar)      You're shinin' like a superstar, baby   (An' the crowd goes wild)   You're shinin' like a superstar   You're shinin' like a superstar, baby   You're shinin' like a superstar
