"Would You Catch a Falling Star" is a tongue in cheek look at the pitfalls of stardom and fame, describing a one-time superstar whose drawing power and appeal to fans is fading.
The song opens with the former superstar finishing a country music show attended by a small crowd. He then departs backstage half drunk and meets a woman. "With all his country charm" he asks her, "Would you catch a falling star before he crashes to the ground?" He offers to bring his guitar and sing her a song in exchange for taking him home. The second verse tells of his former wealth and fame and his descent back into obscurity, trading a large bus for a small van.
