Words and music by bob seger Stood there boldly Sweatin in the sun Felt like a million Felt like number one The height of summer Id never felt that strong Like a rock I was eighteen Didnt 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
