You have come from such a long, long way away
With your old suitcase in your older Chevrolet
You tell me you've written a handful of songs
About a girl who never belongs
Let me be your roadie, baby
Let me carry your junk for you
Let me be your roadie, honey
And I will be your groupie too
I will carry your guitar
You will always be my one true star
You play on subway platforms for a sackful of change
People they look at you as if you're kind of strange
You only sing about what that you know
And what you know doesn't go with the flow
I admire your grace and tenacity
What you face in the face of adversity
I wish I had your courage and strength
It takes lots of moxie to go that extra length
Maybe one day you will be the next great big thing
But you say that won't change the way that you sing
Your found your voice and you know who you are
Even if it that means you'll never be a superstar
