Lynyrd Skynyrd - Born To Run Lyrics
(gary rossington, johnny van-zant, ed king, donnie van zant)Theres an old man sittin on a front porch nowTalkin bout how it used to beWhen I was young I was a hell of a manMy father died when I was tenI hit the road to find a jobHad to feed my familyTimes were hard my hands are still scarredFrom the life Ive had to leadI was born to runDrove a tractor and trailer all my lifeSix kids and a hell of a wifeMade lots of money it all slipped awayA large family thats the price you payI always dreamed never gave upSon, even when times got toughThats when Id push it a little bit moreYou shouldve heard that engine roar(chorus)I was born to runCant slow downNo regrets, Ive been blessedBorn to runIn time youll see what the good lords done for meBorn to runI cant slow downNo regrets, I did my bestBorn to runIn time youll seeWhat the good lords done, done for meThe old man, he passed awayAnd all he said never crossed my mindUntil I saw the price he payedWas a lot like mineIm full and though its miles awayGotta hit the city right on timeAnd when Im on Ill always sing little song of mineI was born to run(repeat chorus)
