Harris Emmylou Born To Run Album Cimarron 1981 lyrics

Well I never did crawl and I never did toe that line
No man is a master to me I ain`t that kind
I just put on my traveling shoes
If you wanna win you just can`t lose the time
Or stay behind
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

Well I take the chances sometimes I`ve made mistakes
But you don`t get nothing unless you take the breaks
Living as dangerous as dynamite
Sure makes you feel nervous but it makes you feel alright
Makes you feel alright
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 things their way
By the time you figure it out it`s yesterday
Well it comes to he who waits I`m told
But I don`t need it when I`m old and gray
Yea I want it today
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
