I've been around the world

Had my pick of any girl

I should be happy but I'm not I should be happy but I'm

Everybody knows my name

But it's just a crazy game

Oh, it's lonely at the top



Listen to the band they're playin' just for me

Look at all the people payin' just for

All the applause and all the praise

All the money I have made

Oh, it's lonely at the top





So take a tip from those who know

Livin' high can bring you low

You should be happy but you're not

Listen all you fools out there

Go on and love me, I don't care

Oh, it's lonely at the top
