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 guitar, 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 guitar, felt good in his hands
It didn't take long, to understand

Just one guitar, slung way down low
Was a one way ticket, only one way to go


So he started rockin'
Ain't never gonna stop
Gotta keep on rockin'

Someday he's gonna 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 guitar, juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
Juke box hero, he'll come alive tonight


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 guitar 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
Yeah, juke box hero, with that one guitar he'll come alive
Come alive tonight


Yeah, he's gotta keep rockin'
He just can't stop

Gotta keep on rockin'
That boy has got to stay on top


He's gonna be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
Just one guitar, put stars in his eyes

He's just a juke box hero
Juke box hero, juke box hero, he's got stars in his eyes
Stars in his eyes
