Still the same (Bob Seger)

Still The Same

You always won, every time you placed a bet

You’re still damn good, no one’s gotten to you yet

Every time they were sure they had you caught

You were quicker than they thought

You’d just turn your back and walk

You always said, the cards would never do you wrong

The trick you said was never play the game too long

A gambler’s share, the only risk that you would take

The only bluff you couldn’t fake

And you’re still the same

I caught up with you yesterday

Moving game to game

No one standing in your way

Turning on the charm

Long enough to get you by

You still aim high

There you stood, everybody watched you play

I just turned and walked away

I had nothing left to say

‘Cause you’re still the same

You’re still the same

Moving game to game

Some things never change

You’re still the same

Old time rock & roll (Bob Seger)

Old Time Rock & Roll

Just take those old records off the shelf

I’ll sit and listen to ’em by myself

Today’s music ain’t got the same soul

I like that old time rock’n’roll

Don’t try to take me to a disco

You’ll never even get me on the floor

In ten minutes I’ll be late for the door

I like that old time rock’n’roll

Still like that old time rock’n’roll

That kind of music just soothes the soul

I reminisce about the days of old

With that old time rock’n’roll

Won’t go to hear them play a tango

I’d rather hear some blues or funky old soul

There’s only one sure way to get me to go

Start play old time rock’n’roll

Call me a relic, call me what you will

Say I’m old fashioned, say I’m over the hill

Today’s music ain’t got the same soul

I like that old time rock’n’roll

Still like that old time rock’n’roll

That kind of musci just soothes the soul

I reminisce about the days of old

With that old time rock’n’roll

Against the wind (Bob Seger)

Against The Wind

It seems like yesterday

But it was long ago

Janey was lovely, she was the queen of my nights

There in the darkness with the radio playing low

And the secrets that we shared

The mountains that we moved

Caught like a wildfire out of control

Till there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove

And I remember what she said to me

How she swore that it never would end

I remember how she held me oh so tight

Wish I didn’t know now what I didn’t know then

Against the wind

We were runnin’ against the wind

We were young and strong, we were runnin’ against the wind

And the years rolled slowly past

And I found myself alone

Surrounded by strangers I thought were my friends

I found myself further and further from my home

And I guess I lost my way

There were oh so many roads

I was living to run and runnin’ to live

Never worried about paying or even how much I owed

Moving eight miles a minute for months at a time

Breaking all of the rules that would bend

I began to find myself searching

Searching for shelter again and again

Against the wind

A little some against the wind

I found myself seeking shelter against the wind

Well those drifters days are past me now

I’ve got so much more to think about

Deadlines and commitments

What to leave in, what to leave out

Against the wind

I’m still runnin’ against the wind

I’m older now but still runnin’ against the wind

Well I’m older now and still runnin’

Against the wind
