"Feel Like A Number" lyrics

Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band Lyrics

"Feel Like A Number"

I take my card and I stand in line
To make a buck, I work overtime
Dear Sir letters keep coming in the mail

I work my back 'til it's racked with pain
The boss can't even recall my name
I show up late and I'm docked, it never fails

I feel like just another
Spoke in a great big wheel
Like a tiny blade of grass
In a great big field
(Whoa)

To workers, I'm just another drone
To Ma Bell, I'm just another phone
I'm just another statistic on a sheet

To teachers, I'm just another child
To IRS, I'm another file
I'm just another consensus on the street

Gonna cruise out of this city
Head down to the sea
Gonna shout out at the ocean
Hey, it's me

And I feel like a number
Feel like a number
Feel like a stranger
A stranger in this land
I feel like a number
I'm not a number
I'm not a number
Dammit I'm a man
I said I'm a man (Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!)

Gonna cruise out of this city
Head down to the sea
Gonna shout out at the ocean
Hey, it's me

And I feel like a number
Feel like a number
Feel like a stranger
A stranger in this land
I feel like a number
I'm not a number
I'm not a number
Dammit, I'm a man
I feel like a number
Feel like a number
Feel like a number

Hey!
I feel like it
I feel
Feel like it
Feel like it
Whoa
I feel like it
I feel like it
I feel like it
