Bob Seger - Lookin' Back Lyrics
You hit the street, you feel them staring
You know they hate you you can feel their eyes a glarin'
Because you're different, because you're free
Because you're everything deep down they wish they could be
You're lookin back (lookin back) they're lookin back (lookin back)
Too many people lookin back
You're lookin back (lookin back) they're lookin back (lookin back)
Too many people lookin back
They watch the news, see young men dying
They watch them bleedin' and listen to them lyin'
And if they're normal if they can see
They just reach out and change the channel on the TV
When they could vote, and end the war
They're much too busy fittin' locks upon the back door
Give you a foxhole, a place to hide
Cause when the war come the cops'll be on their side
[Chorus]

Bob Seger Lookin' Back Comments
As kids growing up the toy industry made VIETNAM toys...we played with....we all thought we were going to 'NAM...
When 'Nam was raging this song was at the forefront....hundreds a day were being SLAUGHTERED!!! Very Sad Time!
When the war comes, the cops will be on MY side. Listen closer. It makes all the difference in what the song says. Totally relevant in 2018.
Ah the old days are best
heavy tune...dig that
Definitely sounds like today!
Did you boost / eq the sound? sounds weird compared to my single version.
when bob was bob,not the superstar watered down bob
Always listen to this song on Live Bullet, often wondered what LB it was from and wanted to listen to it in the original form, but what you have given, I discovered the song was recorded to a 45 only. Well enjoyed listening to it finally.
I spent years trying to find out which album it was on myself :) .
+Darryl Hushaw I'm right with you on that one
good luck finding the LP.. lol.
Great song, so old but always new. Thanks for uploading.
