Lyrics

Ridin' down the highway (ooh-whoa)
Goin' to a show (ah-whoa)
Stoppin' on the byways (ooh-whoa)
Playin' rock 'n' roll (ah-whoa)
Gettin' robbed, gettin' stoned
Gettin' beat up, broken boned
Getting had, getting took (ah-whoa)
I tell you folks, it's harder than it looks
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
You think it's easy doing one-night stands
Try playing in a rock 'n' roll band
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
Hotel, motel
Make you want to cry
Lady, do the hard sell
Know the reason why
Gettin' old, gettin' gray
Gettin' ripped off, underpaid
Gettin' sold, second-hand (ah-whoa)
That's how it goes, playin' in a band
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
If you wanna be a star of stage and screen
Look out, it's rough and mean
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top, if you wanna rock 'n' roll
