Lyrics
you can be a star. a star, you've got the greatest gift in the world, just believe and you can do it girl, as a little girl, there was so many things i wanted to be, the big stage the attention of the crowd, had always inspired me, so every night when i knelled down to pray, i'd ask the lord to make me a star one day, then a voice said, you can be a star. a star, you've got the greatest gift in the world, just believe and you can do it, ooh girl, as time went on, i let doubt get the best of me, saying you just a country girl, and being a star is only in your dreams, that night my mama set me down to say, have faith the world will know who you are one day, she told me, you can be a star. a star, you've got the greatest gift in the world, ooh, if you believe and you can do it girl, is it worth it?, i don't know, that life isn't perfect, ooh, i don't know, things will get worse if, you become a star, won't somebody help me out right now?, is it worth it?, tell me, that life isn't perfect, left me know, things will get worse if, you become a star, so many broken promises, in writing to the top, expectations of who i should be, changed how i see this industry, so i learned, follow my heart and go with my soul, stay true to me and never lose sight of my goals, and remember what i was told, you can be a star. a star, you've got the greatest gift in the world, only if you believe and you can do it girl, you can be a star. a star, you've got the greatest gift in the world, just believe have faith you can do it, ooh girl
