Born to rock & roll

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
