EVERYBODY IS A STAR (1970)
Everybody is a star
Who can rain, and chase the dust away
Everybody wants to shine
Who ll come out, on a cloudy day
Til the sun that loves you proud
When the system tries to bring you down
Every hand to shine tonight

Everybody is a star
I can feel it when you shine on me
