Rock 'n' Roll Hero

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

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

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
