	Story Behind the Song ONE MORNING, BEFORE MY PRECIOUS MOM PASSED AWAY, SHE CAME BY TO PICK ME UP TO GO SHOPPING. AFTER SEVERAL TIMES OF RUNNING BACK INTO THE HOUSE FOR SOMETHING I'D FORGOTTEN, I SAID,"I MUST BE DUMB AS A ROCK!"..TO WHICH SHE REPLIED,"WELL IF YOU'RE DUMB, THEN GIMME A ROCK!"--THEN WE BOTH FROZE AND LOOKED AT EACH OTHER WITH THAT "HEY, DID YOU HEAR THAT?" EXPRESSION ON OUR FACES..THAT SONGWRITERS ALWAYS GET WHEN THEY HEAR A GOOD SONG TITLE!..AND AS WE WALKED TO THE CAR I JUST STARTED SINGING AS THE WORDS JUST POPPED OUT, AND MOM CHIMED IN SINGING THE BASS PART! BY THE TIME WE GOT BACK, THE SONG WAS BASICALLY FINISHED!--OH HOW MUCH I MISS THESE KIND OF MOMENTS WITH MOM!!! I THANK GOD THAT SOMEDAY WE'LL MEET AGAIN...CAN YOU IMAGINE OUR EXPRESSIONS THEN? Lyrics GIMME A ROCK DROWNING IN THE SEA OF LIFE AND SINKING TO THE SAND.. FLOUNDERING AND REACHING FOR A SINGLE OUTSTRETCHED HAND.. THE TIDES ARE RUNNING HIGHER AND I'M SO FROM THE DOCK.. I CANNOT WALK ON WATER LORD, GIMME A ROCK! (CHORUS) GIMME A ROCK..TO LAY MY HAND ON GIMME A ROCK..THAT I CAN LAND ON GIMME A ROCK..THAT I CAN STAND ON GIMME A ROCK GIMME A ROCK..WHEN IT'S STORMY GIMME A ROCK..RIGHT BEFORE ME IF I'M ONE STONE'S THROW FROM GLORY GIMME A ROCK. FEELING SMALL AND HELPLESS IN THE BATTLE OF THE NIGHT.. STUMBLING OVER EVIL TIL YOU LET ME SEE THE LIGHT.. FACING DOWN THE ENEMY CAN BE A GIANT SHOCK! JUST LIKE LITTLE DAVID LORD, GIMME A ROCK! (REPEAT CHORUS)
