Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, Little Jackie (Little Jackie)
All right
[Verse 2]
Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star
She got off a Greyhound
In search of fortune and fame
Hoping 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 live to regret it
[Verse 3]
Oh,little Jackie, she wants to be a star
She's caught in the middle
(Of reality and what she's dreaming of)
Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star
(Smack dab in the middle of)
Oh, growing up
[Verse 4]
(Times Square)
Is there where she makes it?
(Some people never get there)
Then she met a guy
(So fly)
But he wants to buy nothing but a five dollar high
Jackie, say no
(He'll try to change you), Or rearrange you, (Or rearrange you)
Remember what your mama done told you
Never ever take gifts from a stranger
[Verse 5]
Oh, little Jackie she wants to be a star
She's caught in the middle
(Of reality and what she's dreaming of)
Oh, little Jackie she wants to be a star
(Smack dab in the middle of)
Oh, growing up
[Verse 6]
I'm talking bout
I said I'm talking 'bout Jackie
Oh, wah, wah, me
Oh, yeah
[Verse 7]
All that glitters ain't gold
(Don't let the green eyes fool you)
You're only sixteen years old
(Don't let the streets try to rule you)
[Verse 8]
You never meant to be a runaway
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, ho
There's got to be a better way today
Today, talking about Jackie
(I believe you, I believe you)
(If you believe in yourself, I really think you're gonna make it)
Ho, ooh, oh, oh, yeah
Talking about Jackie
(I believe you, I believe you)
(If you believe in yourself, I really think you're gonna make it)
[Verse 9]
Let me get the meaning, and the preacher get the feeling yeah, yeah
[Verse 10]
Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star
She's caught in the middle
(Of reality, and what's she's dreaming of)
Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star
(Smack dab in the middle of, ooh, growing up)
(I believe you, I believe you)
Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be a star
(If you believe in yourself, I really think you're gonna make it)
She's caught in the middle
(Of reality, and what's she's dreaming of)
(I believe you, I believe you)
Oh, little Jackie, she wants to be, she wants to be a superstar
(If you believe in yourself, I really think you're gonna make it)
(Smack dab in the middle of growing up)
Woo, woo, woo
Woo, woo, woo, yeah, yeah
