Bob Seeger Like a Rock

[Bread and Circus]

Ford trucks I think

1. Question:

Exactly how can a rock be "chargin' from the gate"?

[rucky]

4. Maybe he's talking about the wrestler?

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
I’d never felt that strong
Like a rock

I was eighteen
Didn’t 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
Where’d they go?
Twenty years
I don’t know
Sit and I wonder sometimes
Where they’ve gone

And sometimes late at night
When I’m 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

9. Could there POSSIBLY be a musician worse than Bob Seeger?

Maybe Steve Miller, but even so, I'm not sure.

10. Bob (to me) usually sounds like he's trying to take a Huge dump.

"Like a Rock..uggggggGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHH!! "

11. Sings like he's got a strangulated hernia, doesnt' he? Though not

as much as Mikey Bolton does...
