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
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 (oh, oh)
(He got one guitar) juke box hero (stars in his eyes)
(Juke box hero) 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 from the past to that day in the rain
And that one guitar made his whole life change
Now he's gotta keep on rockin'
He just can't 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 (oh, oh)
(He got one guitar) juke box hero (stars in his eyes)
(Juke box hero) juke box hero, he'll come alive tonight
He'll come alive tonight
