Bob Seger
Like A Rock (Live From Red Rocks)
[Verse 1]
Stood there boldly, sweating in the sun
I felt like a million, I felt like number one
The height of summer, I never felt that strong
Just like a rock
[Verse 2]
I was eighteen, I didn't have a care
Working for peanuts, not a dime to spare
But I was solid, solid everywhere
Just like a rock
[Verse 3]
My hands were steady, my eyes were clear and bright
My walk had purpose, my steps were quick and light
But I held firmly to what I felt was right
Just like a rock
[Chorus]
Just like a rock
I was strong as I could be
Just like a rock
Nothing ever got to me
Just like a rock
I was something to see
Just like a rock
[Bridge]
And I stood arrow-straight
Unencumbered by the weight
Of all these hustlers and their schemes
I stood proud and I stood tall
I stood high above it all
And I still believed in my dreams
[Verse 4]
Twenty years now, where'd they go?
Twenty years now, I don't know
I sit and I wonder sometimes
Just where they've gone
[Verse 5]
Sometimes in the late at night
No, when I'm bathed in the firelight
The moon comes calling a ghostly white
And I recall, I recall
[Chorus]
Like a rock
I was standing arrow-straight
Like a rock
I was charging from the gate
Like a rock
I was carrying the weight
Just like a rock
Just like a rock
Had the sun upon my skin
Like a rock
I was carrying the weight
Like a rock
I can see myself again
Just like a rock
Oh, like a rock
[Outro]
Woah
Woah
