Bob Seger Lyrics for Song: Tightrope
 Lyrics for Album: Like A Rock [1986]
 
 
 
 11179>Saw you walkin' on a backstreet honey
 
 Tryin' to slip away
 
 Did you find someone to take your money
 
 And did it make your day
 
 Take a lesson from someone who's been there
 
 There are lots of roads that lead you nowhere
 
 
 
 I can see it in your blank stare baby
 
 Someone's done you in
 
 Everybody hits the hard truth some time
 
 It's your time again
 
 So you're lonesome and the night's approachin'
 
 Honey this is where the tough get goin'
 
 
 
 Welcome to the tightrope
 
 Between memory and pain
 
 Welcome to the tightrope
 
 Between the freedom and the chain
 
 Welcome to the tightrope
 
 Stretched high above the street
 
 Welcome to the tightrope
 
 It's right beneath your feet
 
 
 
 Once you learn to balance truth and sorrow
 
 You can worry about the rest tomorrow
 
 
 
 Up there on the tightrope
 
 Oh it's a tightrope
 
 You're walkin' on a tightrope
