Star

[Chorus]
You can be a star
Oh, you can be a star
Oh, you can be a star
You can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
(In the world, in the world)
Just believe and you can do it, ooh girl

[Verse 1]
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 kneeled down to pray
I'd ask the Lord to make me a star one day
Then a voice said...

[Chorus]
You can be a star
You can be a star
Oh, you can be a star
You can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
(In the world, in the world)
Just believe and you can do it, ooh girl

[Verse 2]
As time went on
I let doubt get the best of me
Saying, "You're just a country girl
And being a star is only in your dreams"
That night my mother set me down to say
"Have faith, the world will know who you are one day"
She told me...

[Chorus]
You can be a star
Oh, you can be a star
Oh, you can be a star
(You can be a star)
You can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
(In the world, in the world)
Oh, just believe and you can do it, girl

[Bridge]
Is it worth it?
(I don't know)
That life isn't perfect
(Oh, 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
(Let me know)
Things will get worse if
You become a star
(Oh, if I become a star)

[Verse 3]
So many broken promises
In rising 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...

[Outro]
You can be a star
You can be a star
Oh, you can be a star
You can be a star
A star
You've got the greatest gift in the world
(In the world, in the world)
Just believe and you can do it, ooh girl

You can be a star
You can be a star
Oh, you can be a star
Oh, 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
