Like A Rock

{}      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 Workin’ 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 firm 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. {SOLO} Twenty years now where’d they go Twenty years - I don’t know I sit and I wonder sometimes where they’ve gone And sometimes late at night - oh when I’m bathed in the firelight The moon comes callin’ a ghostly white And I recall I recall. Like a rock - standin’ arrow straight Like a rock - chargin’ from the gate Like a rock - carryin’ the weight Like a rock. Like a rock - the sun upon my skin Like a rock - hard against the wind Like a rock - I see myself again Like a rock Oh like a rock. {SOLO}
