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 18, 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 20 years now, where'd they go? 20 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 Oh, 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
