It’s a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock ’N Roll) Pat Boone

[Verse 1]
Hey, ridin' down the highway
Goin' to a show
Stoppin' on the byways
Playin' rock 'n' roll

[Pre-Chorus]
Gettin' robbed, gettin' stoned
Gettin' beat up, broken boned
Getting mad, getting took
I tell you folks, it's harder than it looks

[Chorus 1]
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
Think it's easy doing one night stands?
Try playing in a rock-roll band
It's a long way to the top, if you want to rock 'n' roll

[Verse 2]
Hotel, motel
Make you want to cry
Lady, do the hard sell
Know the reason why?

[Pre-Chorus]
Gettin' old, gettin' gray
Gettin' ripped off, underpaid
Gettin' sold, second-hand
That's how it goes, playin' in a band
