Lyrics:

I sold my soul to rock 'n' roll When it didn't cost a thing Stacks of scratched up 45's And taught myself how to sing What does it take to be a rock 'n' roll hero Just like the king Living your life in a blaze of glory Burnin' it up in a smoke filled club Givin' your soul to the world [Chorus:] Like a rock 'n' roll hero A soldier of fortune in the night Like a rock 'n' roll hero When the white hot lights cut thru the night And the sound of the thunder starts roaring That's when you know what you're savin' it for And you're feeling like a rock 'n' roll hero I owe it all to rock 'n' roll And I wouldn't want to change a thing Got this old guitar strapped around my neck And my baby waiting in the wings What does it take to be a rock 'n' roll hero Just like the king Living your life in a blaze of glory Burnin' it up in a smoke filled club Givin' your soul to the world [Chorus]
