Against The Wind

Bob Seger

It seems likeyesterday

But it was long ago

Janie was lovely

She was the queenof my nights

There in thedarkness

With the radio

Playin’ low and

The secrets that weshared

The mountains thatwe moved

Caught like awildfire out of control

‘Til there wasnothing left to burn

And nothing left toprove

And I remember whatshe said to me

How she swore thatit never would end

I remember how sheheld me

Oh so tight

Wish I didn’t knownow

What I didn’t knowthen

Against the wind

We were runnin’against the wind

We were young andstrong

We were runnin’ againstthe wind

The years rolledslowly past

And I found myselfalone

Surrounded bystrangers

I thought were myfriends

I found myself furtherand further

From my home and I

Guess I lost my way

There were oh somany roads

I was livin’ to run

And runnin’ to live

Never worried aboutpayin’

Or even how much Iowed

Movin’ eight milesa minute

For months at atime

Breakin’ all of therules that would bend

I began to findmyself searchin’

Searchin’ forshelter

Again and again

Against the wind

A little somethin’against the wind

I found myselfseekin’ shelter

Against the wind

Well thosedrifter’s days are past me now

I’ve got so muchmore to think about

Deadlines andcommitments

What to leave in

What to leave out

Against the wind

I’m still runnin’against the wind

I’m older now butstill runnin’

Against the wind

Well I’m older now

And still runnin’

Against the wind

Against the wind

Against the wind

Still runnin’

Against the wind

I’m still runnin’against the wind

Against the wind

I’m still runnin’

Against the wind

I’m still runnin’against the wind

Against the wind

Still runnin’

Against the wind

Runnin’ against thewind

Runnin’ against thewind

Against the wind

See the young manrun

Against the wind

Watch the young manrun

Against the wind

Watch the young manrunnin’

Against the wind

He’ll be runnin’against the wind

Against the wind

Let the cowboysride

Against the wind

Against the wind

Let the cowboysride

Against the wind

They’ll be ridin’against the wind

Against the wind

Against the wind

Against the wind

Ridin’ against thewind

Against the wind

Against the wind

Not every song thatwill be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian”in the eyes of this world.  For some willbe anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviouslyferverent rants of rebellion. Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (inone way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear themessage.

Highwayman

The Highwaymen

I was a highwayman

Along the coachroads I did ride

With sword andpistol by my side

Many a young maidlost her baubles to my trade

Many a soldier shedhis lifeblood on my blade

The bastards hungme in the spring of twenty-five

But I am stillalive

I was a sailor

I was born upon thetide

And with the sea Idid abide

I sailed a schooneraround the Horn of Mexico

I went aloft andfurled the mainsail in a blow

And when the yardsbroke off they said that I got killed

But I am livingstill

I was a dam builder

Across the riverdeep and wide

Where steel andwater did collide

A place calledBoulder on the wild Colorado

I slipped and fellinto the wet concrete below

They buried me inthat great tomb that knows no sound

But I am stillaround

I’ll always bearound

And around

And around

And around

And around

I fly a starship

Across the universedivide

And when I reachthe other side

I’ll find a placeto rest my spirit if I can

Perhaps I maybecome a highwayman again

Or I may simply bea single drop of rain

But I will remain

And I’ll be backagain

And again

And again

And again

And again

And again

And again

Born and Raised in Black and White

The Highwaymen

The wind blows hard

Across the Texasplains

Makes some people

Go insane

While othersquietly

Pray for rain

That’s where wecame from

Two boys playin’ inthe burnin’ sun

One with books

One with guns

Mama calls

But just one comes

The other one runs

In a crystal sense

Of wrong and right

We were born andraised

In black and white

One learned to pray

One learned tofight

We were born andraised

In black and white

We were born andraised

In black and white

Brother took to theGospel road

Spent his wholelife savin’ souls

When he looked atme

His blood ran cold

He didn’t even try

I had no dreams

I had no plans

But a gun felt good

In my right hand

The warden asked

How come you killedthat man

I said I don’t knowwhy

Welcome home

Said the hotmoonlight

We were born andraised

In black and white

One lives to pray

One prays for life

We were born andraised

In black and white

We were born andraised

In black and white

Someone handed me acigarette

They offered me mylast request

I asked my mortalsoul be blessed

By someone close tome

He came to me withtremblin’ hands

He swore he’d neverunderstand

I said it’s justwhat life had planned

It’s destiny

Don’t waste yourtears

On me tonight

We were born andraised

In black and white

I chose the dark

You chased theLight

We were born andraised

In black and white

We were born andraised

In black and white

The wind blows hard

Across the Texasplains

Makes some people

Go insane

While othersquietly

Pray for rain
