Lucinda Williams - It's A Long Way To The Top Lyrics






Ridin' down the highway
Goin' to a show
Stop in all the by-ways
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 wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top
If you wanna 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 wanna rock 'n' roll

Hotel, motel
Make you wanna 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 wanna rock 'n' roll
It's a long way to the top
If you wanna rock 'n' roll
If you wanna be a star of stage and screen
Look out it's rough and mean
It's a long way to the top
If you wanna rock 'n' roll

Lucinda Williams It's A Long Way To The Top Comments
  1. c.... z....

    That's why a lotta people drop out of music.

  2. o.... ....

    She would have done a better job than Axl filling in for Brian Johnson.

  3. R.... S....

    pathetic cover.. good guitar..

  4. O.... W....

    My Sunday Prophet

  5. D.... T....

    This is a Great Homage..

  6. j.... ....

    Totally killing it- dynamite, guitar and singers outrageous-dirty, dirty guitar

  7. L.... S....

    👌👌👌

  8. S.... L....

    I love Lucinda she rocks

  9. R.... M....

    nice version.

  10. R.... C....

    This is complete and utter garbage.

    R.... C....

    /\ clueless.............

    R.... C....

    This fucking rocks.....unless you have no soul......utterly speaking that is.

    R.... C....

    This song doesn't suit Lucinda's voice. To listen to her in her element, listen to 'Pineola' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_c8CYRK6lAs

  11. C.... M....

    Lucinda is a treasure. God knows she loves her craft and is has the tenacity to finally getting the recognition she deserves. She deserves every good thing that comes her way.

  12. b.... ....

    great song.

  13. m.... ....

    She is a SUPERSTAR

  14. p.... g....

    Yeah.. She's got the vibe even more than Bon Scott had

    p.... g....

    She's got vibe .......... and respect. Bon Scott was the guy who smashed Disco with Acca Dacca Rock-n Roll. Evryones has an opininion but that doesn't mean they know what they are talking about. Bon Scott in his time was the greatest Rocker on the Planet and no debate can counter that fact

  15. B.... ....

    Just do not know why or how this woman is not a SUPER DUPER STAR! Love her.

  16. V.... C....

    Gettin old, gettin gray, gettin ripped off!
