    AGAINST THE WIND

    Words and Music by Bob Seger

    recorded by Bob Seger & the Silver Bullet Band

    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 playin’ low,

    And the secrets that we shared, the mountains that we moved,

    Caught like a wild fire out of control

    Till there was nothin’ left to burn and nothin’ 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 livin’ to run and runnin’ to live.

    Never worried about payin’, or even how much I owed.

    Movin’ eight miles a minute for months at a time, breakin’ all of the rules that would bend,

    I began to find myself searchin’, searchin for shelter again and again.

    Against the wind, little somethin’ against the wind.

    I found myself seekin’ shelter against the wind.

    Well, those drifter’s days are past me now.

    I’ve got so much 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,

    Against the wind.

    Your love is rain, my heart the flower.

    I need your love or I will die.

    My very life is in your power.

    Will I wither and fade or bloom to the sky?

    Agua de beber,

    give the flower water to drink.

    Agua de beber,

    give the flower water to drink.

    The rain can fall on distant deserts.

    The rain can fall upon the sea.

    The rain can fall upon the flower.

    Since the rain has to fall, let it fall on me.

    En quis amar mas tive medo.

    A quis salvar meu coracao.

    Mas o amor sabe um segredo.

    O medo pode matar o tue coracao.

    Agua de beber,

    Agua de beber camara.

    Agua de beber,

    En nunca fiz coisa tao certa.

    Entrei pro escola do perdao.

    A minha casa vive aberta.

    Abre todas as portas do coracao.

    Refrain

    Eu sempre tive uma certeza,

    Que so me deu desilusao.

    E que o amor e uma tristeza.

    Muita magoa demais para um coracao.

    How lucky can one guy be?

    I kissed her and she kissed me!

    Like the fella once said,

    Ain’t that a kick in the head?

    The room was completely black;

    I hugged her and she hugged back!

    Like the sailor said, quote,

    My head keeps spinning,

    I go to sleep and keep grinning!

    If this is just the beginning,

    My life is gonna be bee-u-tee-ful!

    Alice in Wonderland, how do you get to Wonderland?

    Over the hill or underland or just behind the tree?

    When clouds go rolling by, they roll away and leave the sky.

    Where is the land beyond the eye that people cannot see?

    Where can it be? Where do stars go? Where is the crescent moon?

    They must be somewhere in the sunny afternoon.

    Alice in Wonderland, where is the path to Wonderland?

    Over the hill or here or there? I wonder where.

    Oh, it’s so funny to be seeing you after so long, girl.

    And with the way you look, I understand that you are not impressed.

    But I heard you let that little friend of mine take off your party dress.

    I’m not gonna get too sentimental like those other sticky valentines,

    ’Cause I don’t know if you are loving somebody. I only know it isn’t mine.

    Refrain:

    Alison, I know this world is killing you,

    Oh, Alison, my sin is true.

    Well, I see you got a husband now.

    Did he leave your pretty fingers lying in the wedding cake?

    You used to hold him right in your hand. I’ll bet he took all he could take.

    Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking when

    I hear the silly things that you say.

    I think somebody better put out the big light, ’cause I can’t stand to see you this way.

    All alone with just the beat of my heart.

    People all around,

    But I don’t hear a sound,

    Just the lonely beating of my heart.

    No use in holding other hands,

    For I’d be holding only emptiness.

    No use in kissing other lips,

    For I’d be thinking just of your caress.

    No other voice can say the words

    My heart must hear to ever sing again.

    No other love can ever bring again.

    Her cigarette

    And all at once

    You love her.

    You’ve scarcely talked,

    You’ve scarcely met,

    But all at once

    You love her.

    You like her eyes,

    You tell her so.

    She thinks you’re wise

    And clever.

    You kiss goodnight

    And then you know

    You’ll kiss goodnight

    Forever!

    You wonder where your heart can go

    And all at once you know.

    I’m so unhappy. What’ll I do?

    I long for somebody who will sympathize with me.

    I’m growing so tired of living alone. I lie awake all night and cry.

    Nobody loves me, that’s why.

    All by myself in the morning, all by myself in the night,

    I sit alone with a table and a chair,

    So unhappy there, playing solitaire

    All by myself.

    I get lonely, watching the clock on the shelf.

    I’d love to rest my weary head on somebody’s shoulder.

    I hate to grow older

    Thinking of you ’til it hurts.

    I know you hurt too, but what else can we do,

    Tormented and torn apart.

    I wish I could carry your smile in my heart,

    When today doesn’t really know, doesn’t really know.

    I’m reaching for you. Are you feeling it too?

    Does the feeling seem oh, so right?

    Oh, in a little while from now, if I’m not feeling any less sour

    I promise myself to treat myself and visit a nearby tower.

    And climbing to the top will throw myself off

    In an effort to make it clear to whoever what it’s like when you’re shattered,

    Left standing in the lurch at a church where people saying,

    My God that’s tough, she’s stood him up, no point in us remaining. We may as well go home.

    As I did on my own; alone again, nat’rally.

    To think that only yesterday, I was cheerful bright and gay;

    Looking forward to, well, who wouldn’t do the role I was about to play:

    But as if to knock me down, reality came around;

    And without so much, as a mere touch, cut me into little pieces:

    Leaving me to doubt talk about God in his mercy,

    Who if he really does exist why did he desert me in my hour of need?

    I truly am indeed alone again, nat’rally.

    It seems to me that there are more hearts

    Broken in the world that can’t be mended,

    Left unattended: what do we do?

    What do we do?

    Now looking back over the years, and whatever else that appears;

    I remember I cried, when my father died, never wishing to hide the tears:

    And at sixty five years old, my mother, God rest her soul,

    Couldn’t understand why the only man she had ever loved had been taken:

    Leaving her to start with a heart so badly broken,

    Despite encouragement from me no words were ever spoken:

    And when she passed away I cried and cried all day:

    Alone again, nat’rally. Alone again, nat’rally.

    I’m just mad for you,

    And I’ll always be,

    But naturally,

    If a custom tailored vet

    Asks me out for something wet,

    When the vet begins to pet,

    I cry, Hooray!

    But I’m always true to you, darlin’,

    in my fashion,

    Yes, I’m always true to you, darlin’, in my way.

    I enjoy a tender pass

    By the boss of Boston, Mass.

    Through his pass is middle class,

    And not Back Bay!

    But I’m always true to you, darlin’, in my fashion,

    Yes, I’m always true to you, darlin’, in my way.

    There’s a madman known as Mack

    Who is planning to attack.

    If his mad attack means a Cadillac,

    Okay!

    But I’m always true to you, darlin’, in my fashion,

    Yes, I’m always true to you, darlin’, in my way.

    I’ve been asked to have a meal

    By a big tycoon in steel.

    If the meal includes a deal,

    Accept I may!

    But I’m always true to you, darlin’, in my fashion,

    Yes, I’m always true to you, darlin’, in my way.

    I could never curl my lip

    To a dazzlin’ diamond clip,

    Though the clip meant let ’er rip,

    I’d not say Nay!

    But I’m always true to you, darlin’, in my fashion,

    Yes, I’m always true to you, darlin’, in my way.

    There’s an oil man known as Tex

    Who is keen to give me checks,

    And his checks I fear,

    Mean that Tex is here to stay!

    But I’m always true to you, darlin’, in my fashion,

    Yes, I’m always true to you, darlin’, in my way.

    Seems ev’rything you buy these days has got a foreign name,

    From the kind of car I drive to my video game.

    I got a Nikon camera, a Sony color TV,

    But the one that I love is from the USA and layin’ next to me.

    Refrain:

    Oh, my baby’s American made,

    Born and bred in the USA,

    From her silky long hair to her sexy long legs,

    My baby is American made.

    She looks good in her tight blue jeans she bought in Mexico,

    And she loves wearin’ French perfume ev’rywhere we go.

    But when it comes to the lovin’ part, one thing is true;

    My baby’s genuine USA, red, white, and blue.

    A long, long time ago

    I can still remember

    How that music used to make me smile.

    And I knew if I had my chance

    That I could make those people dance

    And maybe they’d be happy for a while.

    But February made me shiver

    With ev’ry paper I’d deliver.

    Bad news on the doorstep

    I couldn’t take one more step.

    I can’t remember if I cried

    When I read about his widowed bride.

    Something touched me deep inside

    The day the music died. So

    Refrain:

    Bye-bye Miss American Pie

    Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry.

    Them good old boys were drinkin’ whiskey and rye,

    Singin’ this’ll be the day that I die. This’ll be the day that I die.

    Did you write the book of love

    And do you have faith in God above?

    If the Bible tells you so.

    Now do you believe in rock and roll?

    Can music save your mortal soul

    And can you teach me how to dance real slow?

    Well, I know that you’re in love with him

    ’Cause I saw you dancin’ in the gym.

    You both kicked off your shoes.

    Man, I dig those rhythm and blues.

    I was a lonely teenage broncin’ buck

    With a pink carnation and a pick-up truck.

    But I knew I was out of luck

    The day the music died.

    I started singing

    Refrain

    Now for ten years we’ve been on our own,

    And moss grows fat on a rollin’ stone

    But that’s not how it used to be

    When the jester sang for the king and queen

    In a coat he borrowed from James Dean

    And a voice that came from you and me

    Oh and while the king was looking down,

    The jester stole his thorny crown

    The courtroom was adjourned,

    No verdict was returned

    And while Lenin read a book on Marx

    The quartet practiced in the park

    And we sang dirges in the dark

    The day the music died

    We were singin’

    Refrain

    Helter-skelter in the summer swelter

    The birds flew off with a fallout shelter

    Eight miles high and fallin’ fast,

    It landed foul on the grass

    The players tried for a forward pass,

    With the jester on the sidelines in a cast

    Now the half-time air was sweet perfume

    While the sergeants played a marching tune

    We all got up to dance

    But we never got the chance

    ’Cause the players tried to take the field,

    The marching band refused to yield

    Do you recall what was revealed

    The day the music died

    We started singin’

    Refrain

    And there we were all in one place,

    A generation lost in space

    With no time left to start again

    So come on, Jack be nimble, Jack be quick,

    Jack Flash sat on a candlestick

    ’Cause fire is the devil’s only friend

    And as I watched him on the stage

    My hands were clenched in fits of rage

    No angel born in hell

    Could break that Satan’s spell

    And as the flames climbed high into the night

    To light the sacrificial rite

    I saw Satan laughing with delight

    The day the music died

    He was singin’

    Refrain

    I met a girl who sang the blues

    And I asked her for some happy news,

    But she just smiled and turned away.

    I went down to the sacred store

    Where I heard the music years before,

    But the man there said the music wouldn’t play.

    And in the streets the children screamed,

    The lovers cried and the poets dreamed.

    But not a word was spoken, the church bells all were broken.

    And the three men I admire most,

    The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost,

    They caught the last train for the coast

    The day the music died.

    And they were singin’

    I don’t have to say a word to you,

    You seem to know whatever mood I’m going through.

    Feel as though I’ve known you forever.

    You can look in to my eyes and see

    The way I feel and how the world is treating me.

    Maybe I have known you forever.

    Refrain:

    Amigos para siempre means you’ll always be my friend.

    Amigos para siempre means a love that cannot end.

    Friends for life, not just a summer or a spring,

    Amigos para siempre.

    I feel you near me even when we are apart.

    Just knowing you are in this world can warm my heart.

    Friends for life, not just a summer or a spring,

    Amigos para siempre.

    We share memories I won’t forget.

    And we’ll share more, my friend, we haven’t started yet.

    Something happens when we’re together.

    When I look at you I wonder why

    There has to come a time when we must say good-bye.

    I’m alive when we are together.

    When I look at you I wonder why

    There’s nothing left for me,

    Of days that used to be

    I live in memory among my souvenirs.

    Some letters tied with blue,

    A photograph or two,

    I see a rose from you among my souvenirs.

    A few more tokens rest

    Within my treasure chest,

    And though they do their best to give me consolation,

    I count them all apart,

    And as the teardrops start,

    I find a broken heart among my souvenirs.

    I’m gonna rouge my knees and roll my stockings down,

    Start the car, I know a whoopee spot,

    Oh, I’m gonna see my Sheba shimmy shake.

    Oh, how we danced on the night we were wed.

    We vowed our true love, though a word wasn’t said.

    The world was in bloom, there were stars in the skies,

    Except for the few that were there in your eyes.

    Dear, as I held you so close in my arms,

    Angels were singing a hymn to your charms.

    Two hearts gently beating were murmuring low,

    My darling, I love you so.

    The night seemed to fade into blossoming dawn.

    The sun shone anew but the dance lingered on.

    Could we but relive that sweet moment sublime,

    We’d find that our love is unaltered by time.

    Being used to trouble I anticipate it,

    I closed my eyes,

    Drew back the curtain,

    To see for certain

    What I thought I knew.

    Far, far away,

    Someone was weeping,

    But the world was sleeping.

    Any dream will do.

    I wore my coat,

    With golden lining,

    Bright colours shining,

    Wonderful and new.

    And in the east,

    The dawn was breaking,

    And the world was waking.

    Any dream will do.

    A crash of drums,

    A flash of light,

    My golden coat

    Flew out of sight.

    The colours faded into darkness,

    I was left alone.

    May I return,

    To the beginning?

    The light is dimming,

    And the dream is too.

    We are still waiting,

    Still hesitating.

    Her arms were warm as they welcomed me

    Her eyes were fire bright.

    And then I knew that my path must be

    Through the ever haunted night.

    For anywhere I wander, anywhere I roam

    Till I’m in the arms of my darling again

    My heart will find no home.

    Anywhere I wander, anywhere I roam.

    Her voice was oh such a soft caress

    Of love it gently told.

    And in her smile was the tenderness

    I may never more behold.

    For anywhere I wander, anywhere I roam

    Till I’m in the arms of my darling again

    My heart will find no home.

    Anywhere I wander, anywhere I roam.

    Sitting on a park bench,

    Eyeing little girls with bad intent,

    Snot is running down his nose,

    Greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes.

    Hey, Aqualung.

    Drying in the cold sun,

    Watching as the frilly panties run.

    Hey Aqualung.

    Feeling like a dead duck,

    Spitting out pieces of his broken luck.

    Oh, Aqualung.

    Sun streaking cold, an old man wand’ring lonely,

    Taking time the only way he knows.

    Legs hurting bad as he bends to pick a dogend.

    He goes down to the bog and warms his feet.

    Feeling alone, the army’s up the road,

    Salvation a la mode and a cup of tea.

    Aqualung, my friend, don’t you start away uneasy.

    You poor old sod, you see it’s only me.

    Do you still remember? December’s foggy freeze

    When the ice that clings onto your beard was screaming agony?

    And you snatch your rattling last breaths

    With deep sea diver sounds

    And the flowers bloom like madness in the spring.

    Sitting on a park bench,

    Eyeing little girls with bad intent,

    Snot is running down his nose,

    Greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes.

    Hey Aqualung. Drying in the cold sun,

    Watching as the frilly panties run.

    Hey, Aqualung.

    Feeling like a dead duck,

    Spitting out pieces of his broken luck.

    Oh, Aqualung.

    Oh, Aqualung.

    Are you havin’ any fun?

    What y’ gettin’ out o’ livin’?

    What good is what you’ve got if you’re not

    Havin’ any fun?

    Are you havin’ any laughs?

    Are you gettin’ any lovin’?

    If other people do so can you;

    Have a little fun.

    After the honey’s in the comb

    Little bees go out and play;

    Even the old grey mare down home

    Has got to have hay. Hey!

    Better have a little fun.

    You ain’t gonna live forever;

    Before you’re old and gray still okay.

    Have your little fun, son! Have your little fun!

    Are you havin’ any fun?

    Are you getting’ any lovin’?

    If other people do so can you;

    Have a little fun.

    Why do you work and slave and save?

    Life is full of ifs and buts;

    You know the squirrels save and save,

    And what have they got? Nuts!

    Better have a little fun.

    You ain’t gonna live forever;

    Before you’re old and gray still okay

    Have your little fun, son! Have your little fun!

    Is it an earthquake or simply a shock?

    Is it the good turtle soup or merely the mock?

    Is it a cocktail, this feeling of joy,

    Or is what I feel the real McCoy?

    Is it for all time, or simply a lark?

    Is it Granada I see or only Asbury Park?

    Is it a fancy not worth thinking of,

    Or is it at long last love?

    Crazy little mama come knocking,

    Knocking at my front door, door, door.

    Crazy little mama come knocking,

    Knocking at my front door.

    Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking

    Just like she did it before.

    I woke up this morning with a feeling of despair,

    I telephoned my baby but she wasn’t there.

    Heard someone knocking, and much to my surprise,

    There stood my baby, looking in my eyes.

    Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking

    Just like she did it before.

    If you got a little mama and ya want to get along,

    Teach your little mama right from wrong.

    Tell her that you love her like you did before,

    She’ll come knock, knock, knocking at your door.

    Crazy little mama come knock, knock, knocking

    Well, now it takes more than a robin to make the winter go;

    And it takes two lips of fire to melt away the snow.

    Well, it takes two hearts a-cookin’ to make a fire grow,

    And, baby, you’ve got what it takes.

    You know it takes a lot of kissin’ to make a romance sweet.

    Ooh, it takes a lot of lovin’ to make my life complete;

    And it takes a lot of woman to knock me off my feet,

    And, baby, you’ve got what it takes.

    I say mm, uh-huh-huh, mm,

    You know you’ve got just what it takes.

    Because it takes more than an effort to stay away from you.

    It takes more than a lifetime to prove that I’ll be true;

    But it takes somebody special to make me say, I do,

    And, baby, you’ve got what it takes.

    Understand, girl, that my heart is in your hands

    And I’m cautious of falling in love again.

    So, please don’t hurt me.

    I’m scared. Don’t desert me.

    I’m afraid of being the fool again.

    Refrain:

    So, baby, I’m yours if you want me.

    Baby, I’m yours if you need me.

    Loving you forever if you want me.

    Baby I’m yours if you need me.

    Realize, girl, that my faith is kind of torn.

    Watch your step, because my heart is weak and worn.

    So, won’t you please be careful,

    I’m fragile. I can’t imagine the damage

    I have to handle if you hurt me one more time.

    Please be mine.

    Baby, I’ve been through a whole lot of relationships,
