You've finally arrived at the goals that you setYou thought that was it boy, oh, but you can't quit yetThere's a lonesome old road and it starts at the topYou got one way to go now and it's a mighty fast dropYou know freedom ain't free and glory ain't cheepThe prize that you gained, it's a crown you can't keepOh, when you finally won at vanity's gameIs the title you hold, worth the price you paidYou wrote your own song and you lived your own lifeBut something went wrong 'cause the feelin' ain't rightOh, you've got it all but the magic's all goneYou're at the top of the world boy but you're standing aloneYou know freedom ain't free and glory ain't cheepThe prize that you gained, it's a crown you can't keepOh, when you finally won at vanity's gameIs the title you hold, worth the price you paidIs the title you hold, silver and goldWorth the price you paid
