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   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
