If I want to work, I can. If ...

If I want to work, I can. If I want to play golf, or ride my motorcycle, I can. But the rest of it is family. Sometimes you're not really needed by your family, but you're there. And my kids like to know I'm there.

Bob Seger 92 quotes

I write a lot of songs people...

I write a lot of songs people don't hear. I really just enjoy the process. I finish 'em all. I don't think there's a whole lot of difference between the bad ones and the good ones.

Great sex is wonderful while it's happening, but who remembers great sex they had in 1983?

Bob Seger 92 quotes

My father left us when I was ...

My father left us when I was 10, so I had to make enough money for us to be able to live in a house because my brother went in the service during Vietnam and I was sole support of my mother. And she had no skills, really, except to clean other people's houses. So I had to have a bunch of jobs, you know, as well as music.

Bob Seger 92 quotes

You can't get a good crew and...

You can't get a good crew and a good sound system, and a good light system if you do a small tour. If you want the best, those guys want a commitment of about 4 to 6 months. And I'd want the best people and the best stuff.

Bob Seger 92 quotes

I'm really glad I didn't have...

I'm really glad I didn't have kids earlier, because I probably would have ignored them. I was so into my career. I could just go and play a ton of shows, night after night after night. I can't do that anymore.

The two hours onstage is grea...

The two hours onstage is great. But I can only play a show and then take a night off. I have to sing for two hours, and then I've gotta rest it for a night. So it's the other 46 hours that are just boring as heck.

I had the opportunity to be around my kids a lot. I guess I could have kept working, but I had them when I was 47. You only get to see all this stuff once. I just chose to work at home and watch them.

We've got to practice three weeks, get the kinks out, then we've got to practice three weeks with the crew, and then go out for four months. It's just a huge chunk of time out of life.

Yeah, I'm just blessed to have this very strong thing, my vocals. I'm very healthy in that regard.

Even in junior high, I always knew I had a talent for music and I knew I could make money that way.

Bob Seger 92 quotes

You're not going to hear me d...

You're not going to hear me do a rap song, you're not going to hear me do a jazz song. We have to be true to our roots, do what we do, and try to do it a little better each time.

Bob Seger 92 quotes

I'm trying to be a good parent and set a good example. When I'm on the road, they don't see a lot of me. I see them every other day. It's pretty all-encompassing when I'm on the road.

I did this thing with Trisha ...

I did this thing with Trisha Yearwood, a song called 'The Price.' I had been sitting on it for a while, because I figured, you know, this really needs a good singer.

I had kids at age 47, and very late in life, and I'd been doing it for 30 straight years, writing songs, making a record and touring and starting the process right over.

Bob Seger 92 quotes

Stood alone on a mountain top...

Stood alone on a mountain top, starin' out at the Great Divide. I could go east, I could go west, it was all up to me to decide. Just then I saw a young hawk flyin' and my soul began to rise.

Bob Seger 92 quotes

And just about the time I fee...

And just about the time I feel like screaming and finding me a wall to punch right through, I look up and I just can't help smiling, it's you.

Bob Seger 92 quotes

It was 22 years of work in a ...

It was 22 years of work in a row, right up until 1987. Twenty-two years in a row-either on tour, writing an album, or recording an album. It wasn't until 1987 that I was able to take a breath.

Bob Seger 92 quotes

She gave me a false address, ...

She gave me a false address, took off with my American Express, sunspot baby, sure had me way out guessed.

Bob Seger 92 quotes

Call me a relic, call me what...

Call me a relic, call me what you will, say I'm old fashion, say I'm over the hill. Today's music ain't got the same soul, I like that old time rock and roll.
