Rock N' Roll Is A Vicious Game

He rocked his way through yesterday, lord he thought he had a chance
He played guitar & wrote some tunes, of love & 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, & music was a friend
He recorded a song that made us sing along, & 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, & 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 & harmonized, he made us all feel good
But it's funny how those things can change, & 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
