Oh, Little Jackie
Alright


Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be a star

She got off a Greyhound in search of fortune and fame

Hopin to find a better way and leave her troubles behind
But little did she know that life was sometimes touch and go
Some never get it, open your eyes or you'll learn to regret it


Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be a star
She's caught in the middle -- Of reality and what she's dreamin of

Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be a star
Smack dab in the middle of -- Oh, growin up


Times Square Is there where she makes it
Some people never get there
Then she met a guy -- So fine -- but he wants to buy nothin but a $5 high

Jackie say no -- Hell try to change ya -- or rearrange you
Remember what your mama done told ya, never ever take gifts from a
Stranger


Oh, Little Jackie she wants to be a star
She's caught in the middle -- Of reality and what she's dreamin of
