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...

Afternoon all ~~~~~~~~~ :)
xx

In the day we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway American dream
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
Sprung from cages out on highway 9,
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected
and steppin' out over the line
Baby this town rips the bones from your back
It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap
We gotta get out while we're young
'Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run

Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend
I want to guard your dreams and visions
Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet ribs
and strap your hands across my engines
Together we could break this trap
We'll run till we drop, baby we'll never go back
Will you walk with me out on the wire
'Cause baby I'm just a scared and lonely rider
But I gotta find out how it feels
I want to know if love is wild
babe I want to know if love is real

Beyond the Palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
The girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
And the boys try to look so hard
The amusement park rises bold and stark
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
I wanna die with you Wendy on the streets tonight
In an everlasting kiss

The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive
Everybody's out on the run tonight
but there's no place left to hide
Together Wendy we can live with the sadness
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
Someday girl I don't know when
we're gonna get to that place
Where we really want to go
and we'll walk in the sun
But till then tramps like us, baby we were born to run

And heres one from my Canadian penpal ( I think she's a bit of a rebel on the quiet ...rofl)

Oh says Red Molly to James "That's a fine motorbike.
A girl could feel special on any such like"
Says James to Red Molly "My hat's off to you
It's a Vincent Black Lightning, 1952.
And I've seen you at the corners and cafes it seems
Red hair and black leather, my favourite colour scheme"
And he pulled her on behind and down to Boxhill they did ride
Oh says James to Red Molly "Here's a ring for your right hand
But I'll tell you in earnest I'm a dangerous man.
For I've fought with the law since I was seventeen,
I robbed many a man to get my Vincent machine.
Now I'm 21 years, I might make 22
And I don't mind dying, but for the love of you.
And if fate should break my stride
Then I'll give you my Vincent to ride"

"Come down, come down, Red Molly" called Sergeant McRae
"For they've taken young James Adie for armed robbery.
Shotgun blast hit his chest, left nothing inside.
Oh come down, Red Molly to his dying bedside"
When she came to the hospital, there wasn't much left
He was running out of road, he was running out of breath
But he smiled to see her cry
He said "I'll give you my Vincent to ride"

Says James "In my opinion, there's nothing in this world
Beats a 52 Vincent and a red headed girl.
Now Nortons and Indians and Greeves won't do,
Ah, they don't have a soul like a Vincent 52"
Oh he reached for her hand and he slipped her the keys
Said "I've got no further use for these.
I see angels on Ariels in leather and chrome,
Swooping down from heaven to carry me home"
And he gave her one last kiss and died
And he gave her his Vincent to ride.
