Lyrics:

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