Long Hard Climb

It’s such a long hard climb looking for that start
And you’ve got to do your best to keep from falling apart
It’s gonna blow your mind, gonna break your heart
When you’re tryin' to push a dream to the top of the charts
There’s still a teenage dream deep inside I know
And it make me want to fight to run my show
To push myself in the public eye
For anybody’s uncle to scrutinize
Want to sing about it
It’s such a long hard climb looking for that start
And you’ve got to do your best to keep from falling apart
It’s gonna blow your mind, gonna break your heart
When you’re tryin' to push a dream to the top of the charts
Now I’m wheelin' and I’m dealin' with telephone screamers
And the East Coast-California dreamers
With their unbuttoned shirts and digital watches
Gold records displayed just like so many notches
Hittin' on me for another five percent
When I can’t manage to pay my rent
Want to sing about it
It’s such a long hard climb looking for that start
Yes, and you’ve got to do your best to keep from falling apart
It’s gonna blow your mind, gonna break your heart
When you’re tryin' to push a dream to the top of the charts
I wonder who
(Who wants to mess with my life)
Don’t I wonder who
(Wants to mess with my wife)
Yes, I wonder who
(Wants to mess with my life)
Oh I wonder who
(Wants to mess with my life)
Don’t you know I want to tell you
It’s such a long hard climb looking for that start
Yes, and you’ve got to do your best to keep from falling apart
It’s gonna blow your mind, gonna break your heart
When you’re tryin' to push a dream to the top of the charts
It’s such a long hard climb looking for that start
And you’ve got to do your best to keep from falling apart
You know it’s gonna blow your mind, gonna break your heart
When you’re tryin' to push a dream to the top of the charts
It’s such a long hard climb looking for that start
Yes, and you’ve got to do your best to keep from falling apart
It’s gonna blow your mind, gonna break your heart
