By Richard Starkey and Johnny Warman

WE DIDN'T HAVE THE TIME TO THINK THINGS OVER,
WE HAD A LOT OF FUN, WE HAD SOME TEARS
STEPPING OUT OF LONELINESS,
NOW THE ROAD DON'T SEEM SO LONG,
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
ROCK AND ROLL HAS GOT A REPUTATION,
BAD BOYS CAUSE A LOT OF FEAR
BUT I NEVER MEANT TO REALLY HURT YOU, OH NO, NO,
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
TRAVELLING THE WORLD IN A ROCK AND ROLL BAND,
IT'S IN MY BLOOD, IT'S IN MY BLOOD
OOH, BUT YOU KNOW, IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK HOME
DANCING WITH YOUR SISTER ON A SATURDAY NIGHT,
IT'S UNDERSTOOD, IT'S UNDERSTOOD
WHEN EV'RY BOY AND GIRL,
OOH, WAS ROCKING ALL OVER THE WORLD
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
TRAVELLING THE WORLD IN A ROCK AND ROLL BAND,
IT'S IN MY BLOOD, IT'S IN MY BLOOD
OOH, BUT YOU KNOW, IT'S GOOD TO BE BACK HOME
DANCING WITH YOUR SISTER ON A SATURDAY NIGHT,
IT'S UNDERSTOOD, IT'S UNDERSTOOD
WHEN EV'RY BOY AND GIRL,
OOH, WAS ROCKING ALL OVER THE WORLD
WE DIDN'T HAVE THE TIME TO THINK THINGS OVER,
WE HAD A LOT OF FUN, WE HAD SOME TEARS
STEPPING OUT OF LONELINESS,
NOW THE ROAD DON'T SEEM SO LONG, LONG, LONG, LONG, LONG,
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS,
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS,
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS,
AFTER ALL THESE YEARS
