BOB SEGERHe wants his home and security, he wants to live like a sailor at sea.
BOB SEGERI 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.
BOB SEGERI work my back ’til it’s racked with pain, the boss can’t even recall my name.
BOB SEGERYou go to LA, or you go to New York, and it’s really fun to go there. But they’re not grounded. Everybody is just competing all the time for the limelight. It’s too much entertainment industry. There are too many choices. And it’s distracting to me.
BOB SEGEROut past the cornfields where the woods got heavy, out in the back seat of my ’60 Chevy. Workin’ on mysteries without any clues, workin’ on our night moves.
BOB SEGERI want to be sure I can deliver what people expect to hear. I just don’t know if I can physically do it. Or if I should.

BOB SEGERI 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.

BOB SEGERShe had been born with a face that would let her get away, he saw that face and he lost all control.
BOB SEGERBeautiful loser, where you gonna fall? When you realize, you just can’t have it all.
BOB SEGERI like people to just bring it to the table and feel the moment. And that’s why I’ve never done a session where I don’t sing live.
BOB SEGERUp with the sun. Gone with the wind.
BOB SEGERI’m just trying to keep things simple, and just be a little more offhand and not get so deep into things. Enjoy what you got right now, because who knows what’s going to happen tomorrow.
