Write on

Write on, even though there's no one listening to your songs

Write on

Shine on, get it together, let your light break through

Shine on, baby, shine on

Write on, sitting on your own, waiting for the phone

Come on, come on, come on

Write on, for your fame and fortune will follow you, coming on strong

Coming on strong

Don't feel bad 'cos the radio ain't playing 'em

It won't be long til you're going out and slayin' 'em

Shine on

You're not the first, you won't be the last

To feel the frustration of a musical fast

Write on, baby, write on

Sing your rock and roll with a touch of soul

Ballads with feeling, send your audience reeling

Rock on, rock on

Find a man with a van, a back up band

Who'll give you a hand on your one night stand

Rock on, baby, rock on

Give 'em your licks, getting off on their kicks

Swayin in motion to a rhythmic potion

Rock on, baby, rock on

Music freaks and all those hustlers

Hangers on, trying to make a con

Rock on

Don't sign on the line til you know it's all fine

It's your life baby, you got to give it time

Rock on, baby, rock on
