| Lyrics: |
Well, I was born on the side of a road
A gap in the hedge, did you hear what I said? Born in a house with no slates, But I wouldn't switch, I didn't have a stitch. Always been out on a limb, I've been hard to mend like a kick in the shins You only see me smile when I eat up a country mile Born on the green light, a mission to move, Something to groove, an itch in my shoes, I heard the wail of the train From a burning stack and I jumped on the back We'll the engineer threw the switch And got to my brain, I've never been the same You'll only see me smile when I eat up a country mile Gotta make tracks, gotta loose some rust, Grease my heels, I'll race to bust, Don't blink your eye or you wont see me again Well I was born on the spoke of a wheel, Not part of a set and I'm runnin' yet I ran before I could walk, The price of the fare was hardly ever there I saw an eighteen-wheeler move And I couldn't choose, I just had to cruise, You'll only see me smile when I eat up a country mile Well I was born on the wrong side of the road, A gap in the hedge, did you hear what I said? Born in a house with no slates But I wouldn't switch, I didn't have a stitch. I've always been out on a limb, I've been hard to mend like a kick in the shins Gotta make tracks, gotta raise the dust, Grease my heels, I'll race to bust, Don't blink an eye or you won't see me again |
