It's A Long Way Down To The Top (Live, Fairfield Hall, Croydon, 15 June 1975)

Well I want to tell you a story, yeah-yay! ... I been playing rock and roll now, 'bout half a million years And the road to success, might be called the trail of tears I don't mean to sound bitter, I've surely had some fun But if I could have looked ahead, I might never have begun It's a long way down, you're turning your head around It's a long way down to the top It's a long way down, you're turning your head around It's a long way down to the top Yes it is! ... Well I knew that fame and fortune, would surely come my way But the thing I did not realise, was the price I'd have to pay I thought I'd beat the devil! No, no, no! I'd have to guess again 'Cause the man who owns my contract, sure looks a lot like him It's a long way down, they're turning your head around It's a long way down to the top It's a long way down, they're turning your head around It's a long way ... (solo) ... Such a long way I thought I'd beat the devil - no, no! Such a long way It's a long way down, to turn your head around It's a long way It's a long way down, to turn your head around Such a long way It's a long... Such a long... It's a long way down, turn your head around It's a long way, to the top! It's a long way down, they're turning your head around It's a long way down... To the... ...top!
