Born To Run

In the day, we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway American dream
At night, we ride through mansions of glory, suicide machines
Smoke from cages out on Highway Nine, chrome-wheel, fuel-injected, steppin' out over the line
Woah, baby this town strips the bones from your back
It's a death trap, it's a suicide wrap
Gotta get out while we're young
'Cause tramps like us
Baby, we were born to run

Oh, now let me in, I wanna be your friend
I wanna go as your dreams and visions
Just wrap your legs 'cross these velvet rims
Strap your hands 'cross my engines
Together, we can break this trap
We'll run 'til we drop
And baby, we'll never go back
Woah, will you walk with me out on the wire?
'Cause baby, I'm just as scared and lonely but I gotta know how it feels
I wanna know if love is wild
I wanna know if love is real
Oh yes I do

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

The highways are filled with broken heroes on a last-chance power drive
And everyone's out on the run tonight
But there's no place left to hide
Together, girl, we'll live with the sadness
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
Woah, someday, girl, I don't know when
We're gonna get to that place we both really wanted to go and walk in the sun
But, 'til then, tramps like us
Baby, we were born to run
Oh yeah, honey, tramps like us
Baby, we were born to run
Oh yeah, honey, tramps like us
Baby, we were born to run

Oh, woah, woah, oh, oh, oh, woah
Oh, woah, oh, woah, oh, oh, oh, woah
Oh, woah, woah, oh, oh, oh, woah
Oh, woah, oh, woah, oh, oh, oh, woah
