Lyrics for Song: Born to Run
Lyrics for Album: Live In Germany 2000 [2011]
(Paul Kennerley)
Well, I never did crawl and I never did toe the line
No man is master to me, I ain't that kind
I just put on my travellin' shoes
if you want to win you just can't lose the time or stay behind.
Well, I was born to run, to get ahead of the rest
To know that I wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free and be someone
I was born to be fast, I was born to run.
I've taken chances there's times I've made mistakes
But you don't get a thing unless you take the breaks
Living as dangerous as dynamite sure makes you feel nervous
But it makes you feel all right makes you feel all right.
Well, I was born to run, to get ahead of the rest
To know that I wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free and be someone
I was born to be fast, I was born to run.
--- Instrumental ---
Nobody gonna make me do the things their way
By the time you figure it out it's yesterday
It comes to he who waits I'm told but I won't need it
When I'm old and gray, yeah, I want it today.
Well I was born to run, to get ahead of the rest
To know that I wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free and be someone
I was born to be fast, I was born to run.
I was born to run, to get ahead of the rest
To know that I wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free and be someone
I was born to be fast, I was born to run...
