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 rearing
