[Verse 1]
If the sun
Ain't shining bright
And the moon, the moon, the moon
Won't shine for you tonight
If the stars in the sky gone away
And you feel
Feelin' real low down today

[Chorus]
If life gets hard to understand
And the whole thing is getting out of hand
Come to poppa
Come see your poppa, yeah

[Verse 2]
If you need a pacifier
Call me anytime
I'll try to be your satisfier
If you feel
Like a horse
Blazin' at the bit
Call my number
Anytime night or day
I'll get ya fixed

[Chorus]
If life gets hard to understand
If your life is way out of hand
Come to poppa
Come see your poppa, yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
If life gets hard to understand
If the whole thing is gettin' way out of hand
Come to poppa
Come see your poppa

[Outro]
Just come to me
Come on to poppa
Said come to me
Come and see your poppa, yeah
(Ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh)
(Ooh ooh, yeah)

Robert Clark “Bob” Seger (born May 6, 1945) is an American singer-songwriter, guitarist and pianist. 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.
