It’s A Long Long Way (To The Top Of The World) – Jerry Garcia
By
It’s a long, long way to the top of the world But it’s only a short fall back down
A young fool filled with greed, I let ambition rule me Like a hunger that gnawed at my soul I worked hard, made my fortune, but lost the heart of my darling She grew lonely and her love soon grew cold
It’s a long, long long way to the top of the world On a rough road that winds round and round It’s a long, long way to the top of the world But it’s only a short fall back down
I’m a big man with money, but at love I’m a pauper The love I once had now another man claims I reached the top of the world, but my heart hit rock bottom You can’t make love to fortune or fame
It’s a long, long long way to the top of the world On a rough road that winds round and round It’s a long, long way to the top of the world But it’s only a short fall back down
It’s a long, long way to the top of the world But it’s only a short fall back down
