Bob Seger

I was sitting in a Washington Square hotel
Not the Washington Square Hotel
I was listening to a Bob Seger CD
Someone gave me as a joke
But it's no joke, I like it
Something about today makes me forget
All of the steakhouse, small dancefloor dancing
Makes me forget
All the co-workers groping to "We've Got Tonight"
Yeah, but we've also got families

Jackie, I'm tired of talking to you
How does room service get confused
Between a clubhouse and a common bowl of oatmeal?
Listening to the music
I think I understand
What a young, beardless Bob Seger must have lived through

All the cushionless couches
At all the sides of the road doesn't seem as
Sad as you
All the Phil's in the phone book
All the fish in the sea couldn't keep me
Company tonight
I am alone

I was lying on a pile of coats
My face painted "happy birthday"
It was a conceptual joke
It was nobody's birthday
I was lying on a pile of coats
I was leaving a party early
It didn't work too good because
The party was at my house

Some silhouette
Claimed she was my girlfriend
Asked me, exactly
What was my latest plan
For my downstairs ? friends
Who sat, staring at their thumbs
Who did I think I am?

Well, ma'am
I am Bob Seger
Lying on some coats
I am Bob Seger
Let 'em come and see what I've accomplished
I am Bob Seger
This is my album cover shot
I am Bob "Road Dog" Seger

Turn the page
Honey, I think I pissed the bed
Yeah. Yeah, I know
I, I know
I know
