|
Stood there boldly
|
Sweatin' in the sun
|
Felt like a million
|
Felt like number one
|
The height of summer
|
I'd never 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
|
I 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
|
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
|
|
|
