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
