Songwriter: Bob Seger

[Verse 1]
I need some wisdom
I need some truth
I need some beauty
I need some proof
And in the meantime
I need a place to hide
If I had you babe
I'd be satisfied

[Verse 2]
Went to the ocean
Stood in the surf
I felt the water
I felt the earth
I heard the angels
They couldn't be denied
If I had you babe
I'd be satisfied

[Bridge]
Who's gonna believe me?
I'm a broken down dog
But I can still snarl with the best
The train is leavin'
We can catch it if we run
We can leave it all behind
This utter emptiness

[Piano Solo]
Oh yeah

[Verse 3]
You are the reason
That I was born
You are the answer
I'm lookin' for
All of the others
Just stood around and lied
If I had you babe
I'd be satisfied
Oh yeah

[Outro]
Aw yeah
Aw

As a locally successful Detroit-area artist, he performed and recorded as Bob Seger and the Last Heard and Bob Seger System throughout the 1960s. By the early 1970s, he had dropped the “System” from his recordings and continued to strive for broader success with various other bands. In 1973, he put together the Silver Bullet Band, with a group of Detroit-area musicians, with whom he became most successful on the national level with the album Live Bullet, recorded live with the Silver Bullet Band in 1975 at Cobo Hall in Detroit, Michigan. On his studio albums, he also worked extensively with the Alabama-based Muscle Shoals Rhythm Section, which appeared on several of Seger’s best-selling singles and albums.

In 1976, he achieved a national breakout with the studio album Night Moves. The Night Moves title track became his first Billboard Top 5 single and the album started a string six consecutive albums landing in the Billbaord Top 10. The 1980 album, Against the Wind, topped the charts.
