Born to Run

[Verse 1] There's an old man sitting on a front porch now Talking about how it used to be When I was young I was a hell of a man My father died when I was ten I hit the road to find a job Had to feed my family Times were hard my hands are still scarred From the life I've had to lead I was born to run Drove a tractor and trailer all my life Six kids and a hell of a wife Made lots of money it all slipped away A large family that's the price you pay I always dreamed never gave up Son, even when times got tough That's when I'd push it a little bit more You should've heard that engine roar [Chorus] I was born to run Can't slow down No regrets, I've been blessed Born to run In time you'll see what the good Lord's done for me Born to run I can't slow down No regrets, I did my best Born to run In time you'll see What the good Lord's done, done for me [Verse 2] The old man, he passed away And all he said never crossed my mind Until I saw the price he payed Was a lot like mine I'm full and though it's miles away Gotta hit the city right on time And when I'm on I'll always sing little song of mine I was born to run [Chorus]
