Bob Seger - Like a Rock ( Music Video )

from Like a Rock 1986 & Greatest Hits 1994
( Words and music by bob seger )

Stood there boldly
Sweating in the sun
Felt like a million
Felt like number one
The height of summer
I'd never felt that strong
Like a rock

I was eighteen
Did'nt have a care
Working for peanuts
Not a dime to spare
But I was lean and
Solid everywhere
Like a rock

My hands were steady
My eyes were clear and bright
My walk had purpose
My steps were quick and light
And I held firmly
To what I felt was right
Like a rock

Like a rock, I was strong as I could be
Like a rock, nothin ever got to me
Like a rock, I was something to see
Like a rock

And I stood arrow straight
Unencumbered by the weight
Of all these hustlers and their schemes
I stood proud, I stood tall
High above it all
I still believed in my dreams

Twenty years now
Whered they go?
Twenty years
I dont know
Sit and I wonder sometimes
Where theyve gone

And sometimes late at night
When Im bathed in the firelight
The moon comes callin a ghostly white
And I recall
Recall

Like a rock. standin arrow straight
Like a rock, chargin from the gate
Like a rock, carryin the weight
Like a rock

Lihe a rock, the sun upon my skin
Like a rock, hard against the wind
Like a rock, I see myself again
Like a rock

 TO MY Papa John Q Wheeler

man lives 5 years with lung cancer the rest with one lung... now a half.... the man is still in the big garage fixing up old weedeaters and his grey marksman ride lawnmower... toughest son of a goddess i know.... Hes still kicking ass

[David Harris]

UN BELIEVABLE 78 dislikes. I hope they FIND HELP!

[Shnoshk]

I remember this song from a car commercial in the 90s

[steadfastbb]

A brilliant song about dedication, character, self worth, and hard honest work barely breaks 2 million. Autotune teeny-boppers like taylor swift get 109 million for whinny songs like "Trouble" on the reg.

"Charging from the gate...carrying the weight"

"Sun upon my skin....hard against the wind."

Ranger-on Bob Seger. You set the standard for hero's, champions, legends. At least 2 million people still seek out good music.

[Alexandru Branzoi]
