Текст (слова) песни «Born To Run»
Well I never did crawl and I never did tow 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
(Chorus)
Well.....I was born to run
To get ahead of the rest
And I ever wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free
And be someone
I was born to be fast
I was born to run
Well I take my chances
Sometimes I make mistakes
But you don't get nothin'
Unless you take the breaks
Livin' as dangerous as dynamite
Sure makes you feel nervous but it makes you feel alright
It makes you feel alright
(Chorus)
Well.....I was born to run
To get ahead of the rest
And all 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's gonna make me do the things their way
By the time you figure it out it's yesterday
Well I'm gonna hear you answer no
But I don't need it when I'm old and grey
Yeah I want it today
(Chorus twice)
Well.....I was born to run
To get ahead of the rest
And I ever wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free
And be someone
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
(Chorus)
Well.....I was born to run
To get ahead of the rest
And I ever wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free
And be someone
I was born to be fast
I was born to run
Well I take my chances
Sometimes I make mistakes
But you don't get nothin'
Unless you take the breaks
Livin' as dangerous as dynamite
Sure makes you feel nervous but it makes you feel alright
It makes you feel alright
(Chorus)
Well.....I was born to run
To get ahead of the rest
And all 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's gonna make me do the things their way
By the time you figure it out it's yesterday
Well I'm gonna hear you answer no
But I don't need it when I'm old and grey
Yeah I want it today
(Chorus twice)
Well.....I was born to run
To get ahead of the rest
And I ever wanted was to be the best
Just to feel free
And be someone
