Born to rock 'n' roll
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Now I've been workin' hard for so many years
Just tryin' to get myself by
Can't talk to people you don't know
That's why some of you die
Well, I live so hard and I learn so well
Just to push myself along
But if you're born to Rock & Roll, you should know
I've drank 'shine from a Mason jar
To pass my time away
Set my sights on a distant star
'Cause I wanted it that way
I learned to read and write, sing and fight
And all those other things
I'm gonna Rock & Roll, baby,
For you tonight
I'm comin' home
Lord, don't you know
When the wind it blows
I was born to Rock & Roll
I'm on my way to see Mr. "J.J."
To tell of things that I've seen
To show him, baby, that I got more
Moves than your local Cajun Queen
Can't talk to people that you don't know
That's why some of you die
But if you're born to Rock & Roll
Then you should know
I'm comin' home
Lord, don't you know
When the wind it blows
I was born to Rock & Roll
I was born to Rock & Roll
I was born to Rock & Roll
