Content[]

It is moderate up-tempo song with country rap influences, that tells the story of typical low-down junkies and wannabes, such as a NASCAR junkie, and a honky-tonk singer, and how they soon "shine like a superstar." The song's bridge features sports commentary by George Plaster.

A review by Maria Konicki Dinoia of AllMusic said the song is a get-out-of-your-seat rocker that's bound to inspire.[2]
