Ridin' down the highway
Goin' to a show
Stop in all the byways
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 want to rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top
if you want to 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 want to rock 'n' roll
Hotel motel
Make you want to 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 want to rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top
if you want to rock 'n' roll
If you want to be a star
of stage and screen
Look out it's rough and mean
It's a long way to the top
if you want to rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top
if you want to rock 'n' roll
But it's a long way
It's a long way, (you should've told me)
It's a long way, such a long way...
