Lyrics
Well, I've been playing rock 'n' roll now
'Bout half a million years
And the road to success
Might be called the trail of tears
Now I don't mean to sound bitter
No, I've surely had my fun
But if I could have looked ahead
I might never have begun
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'd have to pay
I thought I'd beat the devil
But I had to guess again
'Cause the man who owns my contract
Sure looks a lot like him
Oh, it's a long way
To turn your head around
It's a long, long way
Oh, yeah
Oh, sure looks a lot like him
Yes, it does
Yes, it does
Yes, it does
Yes, it does
Oh, it's a long
Such a long
Such a long way
God, it's a long
Such a long
Such a long
God, it's a long
Such, such a long
Oh, yeah
To the top
