| Fast, on a rough road riding
|
| High, through the mountains climbing
|
| Twisting, turning further from my home
|
| Young, like a new moon rising
|
| Fierce, through the rain and lightning
|
| Wandering out into this great unknown
|
| And I don’t want no one to cry
|
| But, tell them if I don’t survive
|
| I was born free!
|
| I was born free!
|
| I was born free, born free
|
| Free, like a river raging
|
| Strong as the wind I’m facing
|
| Chasing dreams and racing father time
|
| Deep like the grandest canyon
|
| Wild like an untamed stallion
|
| If you can’t see my heart you must be blind
|
| You can knock me down and watch me bleed
|
| But you can’t keep no chains on me
|
| I was born free!
|
| I was born free!
|
| I was born free, born free
|
| And I’m not good at long goodbyes
|
| But look down deep into my eyes
|
| I was born free
|
| Calm, facing danger
|
| Lost, like an unknown stranger
|
| Grateful for my time with no regrets
|
| Close to my destination
|
| Tired, frail and aching
|
| Waiting patiently for the sun to set
|
| And when it’s done, believe that I
|
| Will yell it from that mountain high
|
| I was born free! |
| I was born free!
|
| I was born free, born free
|
| I will bow to the shining sea
|
| And celebrate God’s grace on thee |
