I Don't Want to Be a Star Lyrics


I don't wanna to be a star
Just want my Chevy and an old guitar
I don't wanna be a star
I don't need the fat cigarMy friends wonder what is wrong with me
'Cause I don't get off on my fame
I got so much confusion now
Sometimes I don't even know my nameI don't wanna to be a star
Just want my Chevy and an old guitar
I don't wanna be a star
I don't need the fat cigarToo many distractions run through my brain
So many girls they start to look the same
Too many options no time to choose
Too many clothes, too many shoesI've had the world I've done it upside down
I played the part and I've been the clown
Now it's my time, it's a brand new day
To be myself in a different wayI don't wanna to be a star
Just want my Chevy and an old guitar
I don't wanna be a star

I don't need the fat cigarI got to meet all the wonderful people
I drank with Dylan boy did we act a fool
I got to meet all the fabulous people
I got high with Jagger, it was really coolBut I don't wanna to be a star
Just want my Chevy and an old guitar
I don't wanna be a star
I don't need the fat cigarNever, never, never
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
Never, never, neverI said never no no, I said never no no no
I said never no no, I said never no no no
I said never no no, I said never no no no no
Never, neverI don't wanna to be a star
Just want my Chevy and an old guitar
I don't wanna be a star
I don't need no fat cigar

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Leonard Albert "Lenny" Kravitz (born May 26, 1964. New York, USA) is an american singer-songwriter, record producer, and guitarist whose retro amalgam of rock, pop, funk, and even techno is inspired by such music icons as David Bowie, Jimi Hendrix and John Lennon. Like Prince and Sly Stone before him, Kravitz uses a multi-ethnic, mixed-gender backing band.

Kravitz plays guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, percussion, and sitar. He often plays these instruments on each recorded track, but frequently collaborates with other musicians as well when recording.

His 1989 debut album Let Love Rule was a moderate success. In 1991 he released his second album, Mama Said, which reached the top 40 of the Billboard album charts. In 1993, the album Are You Gonna Go My Way was released, reaching #12 on the Billboard 200 and Kravitz earned a Brit Award for best international male artist in 1994. He released the Circus album in 1995, which reached number 10 on the Billboard chart on the back of his past achievement. With 5 (1999), Kravitz embraced digital technology such as Pro Tools and samplers for the first time. He would win the first of his four consecutive Grammy for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance at the Grammy Awards of 1999.

His cover version of The Guess Who's hit "American Woman" won him another Grammy for Best Male Rock Vocal Performance at the Grammy Awards of 2000. Kravitz released a Greatest Hits compilation in 2000. It proved to be his most successful album. The single "Again" would earn him his third consecutive Grammy for the Best Male Rock Vocal in the Grammy Awards of 2001. Kravitz released his sixth album Lenny in October 2001. He won his fourth consecutive Grammy for Best Male Rock Vocal at the Grammy Awards of 2002. Kravitz's seventh album Baptism was released in May 2004. His album, It Is Time For A Love Revolution was released in 2008. He has always edited his albums on Virgin Records America. The lead single from Kravitz’s ninth album, Black And White America, "Stand" was released on June 3, 2011. (Stand Songfacts).

He is the son of Ukrainian-Jewish American NBC television news producer Sy Kravitz, and Bahamian American actress Roxie Roker, best known as her character Helen Willis on the hit 1970s television sitcom The Jeffersons. Black And White America's title track is an autobiographical look back at his upbringing in New York. (Black and White America Songfacts).
