Roger Daltrey - Born to Run lyrics

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 Oh, baby, this town rips the bones from your back It's a d**h trap It's a suicide rap We gotta get out while we're young 'Cause tramps like us Baby, we were born to run Wendy, let me in, I wanna be your friend I wanna guard your dreams and visions Just wrap your legs around these velvet rims And strap your hands 'cross my engines Together we could break this trap We'll run 'til we drop, baby, we'll never go back Oh, will you walk with me out on the wire? 'Cause, baby, I'm just a scared and lonely rider But I gotta find out 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 Girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors, and the boys try to look so hard The amusement park rises bold and dark, kids are huddled on the beach in the mist I wanna die with you, Wendy, in my arms tonight in an everlasting kiss The highway's jammed with broken heroes on a last chance power drive Everybody's out on the run tonight, but there's no place left to hide Together, Wendy, we can live with the sadness I'll love you with all of the madness of my soul Oh, someday, girl, I don't know when We're gonna get to that place where we really wanna go And we'll walk in the sun Until then, tramps like us Baby, we were born to run Oh, Wendy, tramps like us Baby, we were born to run Oh, honey, tramps like us Baby, we were born to run
