Man At the Top - Nils Lofgren

Here comes a fireman, here comes a cop

Here comes a wrench, here comes a car hop

It’s been going on forever, it ain’t never gonna stop

Everybody wants to be the man at the top

Everybody wants to be the man at the top

Everybody wants to be the man at the top

Now, aim your gun, son, and shoot your shot

Everybody wants to be the man at the top

Rich man, poor man, beggar man, thief

Doctor, lawyer, Indian chief

One thing in common they all got

Everybody wants to be the man at the top

Everybody wants to be the man at the top

Everybody wants to be the man at the top

Now, aim your gun, son, and shoot your shot

Everybody wants to be the man at the top

Singing alright, oh yeah

Singing alright, oh yeah

Man at the top says it’s lonely up there

Well, if it is, man, I don’t care

From the big White House to the parking lot

Everybody wants to be the man at the top

Here comes a banker, here comes a businessman

Here comes a kid with a guitar in his hand

Dreaming of his record in the number one spot

Everybody wants to be the man at the top

Everybody wants to be the man at the top

Everybody wants to be the man at the top

Now, aim your gun, son, and shoot your shot

Everybody wants to be the man at the top
