Lyrics for It's A Long Way Down To The Top
Well I have been playing Rock n roll now but Half a million years And the road to success Might be call the trail of tears Now I don't mean to sound bitter But I surely had my fun But if I could have looked ahead I might have never had begin It's a long way down To turn your head around It's a long way down To the top It's a long way down To turn your head around It's a long way down But I knew that fame and fortune Would surely come my way But the thing I did not realize Was the price I have to pay I thought I beat the devil But I had to guess a game Cause the man who wrote my contract Sure looks a lot like hell It's a long way To turn your head around It's a long long way Ohhh Sure looks a lot like. hell Yes it does Yes it does Yes it does Oh it's long Such a long Such a long way God it's long Such a long Such a long God it's long Such a long Oh yea to the top
