Lyrics
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
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
