[00:40.48]She was aware of her insecurities as she took the stage
[00:48.43]She was convinced if she got up there
[00:51.21]That she would be discovered someday
[00:54.93]So she belted it, she hit the high notes fearlessly
[01:02.52]Oh she melted then, as she brought them to their feet
[01:11.06]She was a big star at Banana Joe's Bar
[01:15.49]Where she sang karaoke every night
[01:19.74]She said, "If you work hard to get where you are
[01:23.79]It feels good in the hot spotlight"
[01:26.58]She was a big star
[01:36.43]She made the local cable shows where the camera fell in love with her face
[01:44.45]After a couple of weekends the groupies were crawlin' all over the place
[01:50.67]She signed autographs like she was Garth Brooks in a skirt
[01:58.60]And in the aftermath, that small time town was hers
[02:07.59]She was a big star at Banana Joe's Bar
[02:11.56]Where she sang karaoke every night
[02:15.82]She said, "If you work hard to get where you are
[02:19.41]It feels good in the hot spotlight"
[02:22.57]She was a big star
[02:41.19]She doesn't care anymore that her high school girlfriends cut her down
[02:48.56]They only thought she entertain is where they are and where she is now
[03:00.94]All her old neighbors swear they're certain she slept her way to the top
[03:08.48]She knows you don't get where your going
[03:11.99]Unless you got something they ain't got
[03:16.20]So she sings tonight to 20,000 plus
[03:23.63]And the young girls scream out loud, "Man that could be us"
[03:32.86]She's a big star and she eats caviar
[03:36.47]Just before she performs every night
[03:40.74]She says, "If you work hard to get where you are
[03:45.06]It feels good in the hot spotlight"
[03:47.56]She's a big star, she's a big star
