It started out in London
In the back of Benny's pub
We hit the road and ran the miles
Must have played ten thousand clubs

From Liverpool to Soho, from Hamburg to Berlin 
The people were there waiting for the big show to begin
And it looked like we were headed for a really crazy ride
But we had rock'n'roll on our side

We're on our way, no turning back 
 [bad word] the world, we can't go wrong 
We're on our way to fame and fortune 
One million miles, ten million hearts 
One simple song

By the time we got to Boston 
We were learning how to fly 
And we got to write our story 
All across the endless sky

Everybody made us feel good 
They gave us platinum and gold 
This reckless band of rebels 
With a legend to be told

The ladies and the limos 
Were there ready for the ride 
With rock'n'roll to 
Take us through the night...
