All the Way to Reno (You’re Gonna Be a Star) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Hummin'
All the way to Reno
You've dusted the non-believers
And challenged the laws of chance
Now sweet
You were so sugar sweet
You may as well have had "Kick Me"
Fastened on your sleeve
[Chorus]
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
[Verse 2]
"Wing" is written on your feet
Your Achilles' heel
Is a tendency
To dream
But you've known that from the beginning
You didn't have to go so far
You didn't have to go
[Chorus]
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star
[Bridge]
You know who you are
You know who you are
You know who you are
[Verse 3]
Hummin'
All the way to Reno
You've written your own directions
And whistled the rules of change
[Chorus]
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star (star)
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star (star)
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star (star)
You know what you are
You're gonna be a star (star)
[Outro]
Hummin'
All the way to Reno
All the way to Reno
All the way to Reno
You're gonna be a star (you are, you are)
You're gonna be a star
You're gonna be a star (you are, you are)
You're gonna be a star
