Born to Run

(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.

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...
