Ridin` down the highway
Goin` to a show
Stop in all the by-ways
Playin` rock `n` roll
Gettin` robbed
Gettin` stoned
Gettin` beat up
Broken boned
Gettin` had
Gettin` took
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
If you think it`s easy doin` one night stands
Try playin` in a rock roll band
It`s a long way to the top
If you wanna rock `n` roll
Hotel, motel
Make you wanna cry
Lady do the hard sell
Know the reason why
Gettin` old
Gettin` grey
Gettin` ripped off
Under-paid
Gettin` sold
Second hand
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
