He rocked his way through yesterday, Lord he thought he had a chance
|
He played guitar and wrote some tunes, of love and romance
|
He did his share of travelin', like a dog without a home
|
A fugitive who would rather give, a star that never shone
|
|
Isn't it a pity, isn't it a shame
|
No one ever warned the boy
|
Rock n' roll is a vicious game, oh yeah
|
|
He said he wouldn't get led around, or caught up in the games
|
Or end up in a gallery, of faces with no names
|
And rock 'n' roll was in his soul, and music was a friend
|
He recorded a song that made us sing along, and he was on the road again
|
|
Isn't it a pity, isn't it a shame
|
No one ever warned the boy
|
Rock n' roll is a vicious game, oh oh, oh yeah, oh oh
|
Stage fright, ooh, and long black limousines
|
He's pushing himself a way too hard, or so it seems
|
|
He opened up his heart to us, he gave us what he could
|
We symphathized and harmonized, he made us all feel good
|
But it's funny how those things can change, and time can pass us by
|
Songs that moved us so easily, no longer make us cry
|
|
Now isn't it a pity, isn't it a shame
|
No one ever warned the boy
|
Rock n' roll is a vicious game, oh oh, oh
|
Oh yeah, oh, oh oh oh, oh, yeah, yeah yeah yeah
|
My my my, rock 'n roll is a vicious game, yeah
|
Rock 'n' roll, rock 'n' roll, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh
