\"Loves Me Like a Rock\" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Paul Simon. It was the second single from his third studio album, There Goes Rhymin' Simon (1973), released on Columbia Records. It features background vocals from the Dixie Hummingbirds, a Southern black gospel group. Although the lyrics are not typically associated with gospel music, the Dixie Hummingbirds were eager to record the song with Simon, and they recorded their own version of the song soon afterward.
Paul Simon's version of \"Loves Me Like a Rock\" peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart the week of October 6.
