Sightseeing Lyrics - The Fire Inside - Bob Seger

It was a curious sight to me 

A castle older than a redwood tree 

Once lived in by royalty 

Who taxed and raped the land 

Mostly now it was stone and dust 

Long damp halls and smells of must 

Faded walls and ancient rust 

Built on shifting sand 

And I wanted I wanted I wanted 

To smash that sucker down

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

It was a marvelous sight to see 

A redhead workin' in a brasserie 

Five foot nine built to a tee 

Eyes so blue and bright 

All the drunks were just circling round 

I drank water and held my ground 

Later on we did the town 

And we caught every sight 

Cause I wanted I wanted I wanted 

To follow her down 

Sightseein' freein' my soul 

Sightseein' leavin' my soul 

Photos 

It was a magical sight to me 

And Yves Tanguy in a gallery 

The 30's looking back at me 

As if he really knew 

I marveled at the artistry 

Predating or technology 

The vision there for all to see 

Bold and strong and true 

And I wanted I wanted I wanted 

To take that painting home 

I wanted I wanted 

I wanted to take that vision home
