| Bob Seger – Fire Lake Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
first off, you guys are reading to much into it.bob seger himself said its about taking risks. back in the day chrome three wheelers were seen as sissy bikes,who is gonna make that first mistake is self explanitory,gypsy leathers are frilly leather jackets and chaps that came out in the late seventies,and everyone thought they were gay. uncle joe did not want to cut the cake cause he was afraid of marriage.braveing the bronze beauties are a reference to going upto beautiful women and not being shy and taking a chance,when he says am i really here at last is "i finally did it and it's awesome. eights and aces is another reference to the dead mans hand ,if he plays them will he die? "who wants a raise who needs a stake" ,are also risks that you take.and "who wants to take that long shot gamble" yet again is another risk. and finally fire lake is an imaginary place where if you take the risk and have the balls to do anything that is above the norm,you belong there. end of story |
