I got a black leather jacket, boots made to ride
Gasoline in my veins, ain't got nothin' to hide
The road is callin, the night's alive
With a six string thunder and a 55 drive
I hear the whistle blowin' down that lost highway
Got no destination, but I'm leavin' anyway
Neon lights behind me, the city fades to black
I ain't ever lookin' back, no, I ain't turnin' back
Rollin' down the highway, burnin' wheels on fire
Pedal to the metal, I'm a reckless live wire
Ain't no slowin' down, I was born to run
With the moon as my witness and the risin' sun
Midnight thunder, echoes in my soul
Every mile a memory, but I can't lose control
Whiskey in my bottle, trouble in my mind
But I keep on ridin, leave my past behind
The sheriff's got my number, but he'll never catch me now
Got the devil ridin' shotgun and my head up in the clouds
With a guitar in my backseat and a dream inside my chest
I was made for the blacktop, baby, I was born to test
Rollin' down the highway, burnin' wheels on fire
Pedal to the metal, I'm a reckless live wire
Ain't no slowin' down, I was born to run
With the moon as my witness and the risin' sun
I hear the desert wind whisperin' my fate
A ghost upon the highway ridin' on too late
Ain't no chains can hold me, ain't no road too long
Just a shadow in the rearview hummin' my song
Engines screamin, I'm on my last mile
But I smile through the danger, I was born wild
A hundred miles an hour, racin' with the dawn
Ain't nobody gonna stop me, cause I'm already gone
The stars are shinin, lightin' up my way
Every road I travel tells the price I had to pay
But I ain't slowin' down, no, I ain't gonna fade
Cause the fire in my soul will never be afraid
Rollin' down the highway, burnin' wheels on fire
Pedal to the metal, I'm a reckless live wire
Ain't no slowin' down, I was born to run
With the moon as my witness and the risin' sun
