Top of the Rock Lyrics by Hagar Schon Aaronson Shrieve

Through the Fire

1984

I've taken a lot of lip
Just to be what I am
You think it's tough being a kid, huh
Well try being a man sometime
Everybody wants a little piece
Or they try to shoot you down
Well I just tell 'em, "Sit on this
And spin around." Yeah, whoo
It ain't easy speakin' out
Some people take it to heart
And if you ain't standin' on top of the rock
They'll try and tear you apart
Me, I took four the hard way
I overcame the fear
And it got me in a lot of trouble
But it also got me here
Standin' on top
Top of the rock
Standin' on top
Top of the rock
I may not be a business man
I ain't no fast slick talker
But you just ask the kid in the street
He'll tell ya I'm a rocker
Everybody wants a little piece
And they try to shoot me down
Yeah, well I tell them to "Sit on this
Huh, and take a spin around."
Standin' on top
Top of the rock
Standin' on top
Top of the rock
I took four the hard way
I overcame the fear
Yeah, she got me in a lot of trouble
And it also got me here
Standin' on top
Top of the rock
Standin' on top
Top of the rock, yes, wooh
And I'm standin' on top
Top of the rock
Standin' on top
Top of the rock, yeah
Standin' on top of the rock
Yeah, and I ain't comin' down, baby huh
Ow
