Juke Box Hero Lyrics By Foreigner

    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 just blew him away
    he saw stars in his eyes and the very next day
    bought a beat up six string in a secondhand store
    didn’t know how to play it but he knew for sure
    that one felt good in his hands
    didn’t take long to understand
    just one slung way down low
    was a one way ticket only one way to go

    so he started rocking
    he is never going to stop
    got to keep on rocking
    someday he’s going to 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 juke box hero stars in his eyes
    juke box hero juke box hero he’ll come alive tonight stars in his eyes

    in a town without a name in a heavy downpour
    thought he passed his own shadow by the backstage door
    like a trip through the past to that day in the rain
    and that one made his whole life change

    now he needs to keep on rockin’
    he just can’t stop
    gotta keep on rockin’
    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 got stars in his eyes
    and be a juke box hero got stars in his eyes
    he took one stars in his eyes
    he’ll come alive tonight woah

    yeah he’s gotta keep on rockin’
    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
    yeah juke box hero got stars in his eyes
    juke box hero ahh
    juke box hero ahh
    juke box hero got stars in his eyes
    stars in his eyes
