Born Survivor

Oh, yeah

Hard time, hot time, Saturday night
Drink a little beer, maybe get in a fight
Never look for violence, always get the blame
Danger ain't no stranger when trouble knows your name

According to the man
I'm from the wrong side of the tracks
If he thinks he's got me numbered
There's an answer comin' back
I told him:

I'm a born survivor
Playing hard is the name of the game
Oh, I'm a born survivor
And if you knock me down, I'll be back again
Yeah, I'll be back again

Prime time, our time, loyalties tight
Hard-rocking boys gonna see us right
We never seem to weaken, always standing true
Taking more than one chance, not to sacrifice the crew

According to the man
I'm from the wrong side of the tracks
If he thinks he's got me numbered
There's an answer comin' back
I told him:

I'm a born survivor
Playing hard is the name of the game
Oh, I'm a born survivor
And if you knock me down
Don't hang around

Because many men did
Many men tried
Many were beaten
And many men cried
Many men ran
Trying to hide (trying to hide)
It was tragic and a few of 'em died
(A few of 'em died)
Mm-hmm, died

According to the man
I'm from the wrong side of the tracks
If he thinks he's got me numbered
There's an answer comin' back
I told him:

I'm a born survivor
Playing hard is the name of the game
Oh, I'm a born survivor
And if you knock me down
Don't hang around

I'm a born survivor
Playing hard is the name of the game
Oh, I'm a born survivor
And if you knock me down
Don't hang around

I'm a born survivor
Playing hard is the name of the game
Oh, I'm a born survivor
And if you knock me down
Don't hang around
