Born To Run (Live Acoustic)

by Morrissey

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 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
I wanna get out while I'm still young
`cause tramps like us, baby, we were born to run
Well Wendy let me in I wanna be your friend
I wanna guard your dreams and visions
Just wrap your legs round these velvet rims
Strap your hands across my engines
And together we could break this trap
We'll run till we drop, and baby we'll never go back
Walk with me out on the wire
Girl I'm just a scared and lonely rider
And I gotta now how it feels
I wanna know if love is wild, I wanna know if love is real
Beyond the palace hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
The girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
The boys try to look so hard
The amusement park rises bold and stark
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
Well I wanna die with you Wendy on the streets tonight
In an everlasting kiss
Well, the highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive
Everybody's out on the run tonight but there ain't no place left to hide
And together we could live with the sadness
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
Someday baby I don't know when, we're gonna get to that place
Where we really wanna go and we'll walk in the sun
Till then, tramps like us, baby, we were born to run
Ohohohohoh

Ohohohohoh
Ohohohohoh

Ohohohohoh
Ohohohohoh
