Burn to Run (2008 Remaster) - Emmylou Harris

Well I never did crawl and I never did toe the line

No man is a master to me I ain't that kind

I just put on my travelin shoes

If you wanna win you just can't lose the time

Or stay behind

Well I was born to run to get ahead of the rest

And all that I wanted was to be the best

Just to feel free and be someone

I was born to be fast I was born to run

Well I take the chances for the time I made mistakes

But you don't get nothin unless you take the breaks

Livin as dangerous as dynamite

Sure it makes you feel nervous but it makes you feel alright

Makes you feel alright

Well I was born to run to get ahead of the rest

And all that I wanted was to be the best

Just to feel free and be someone

I was born to be fast I was born to run

Nobody gonna make me do things their way

By the time you figure it out its yesterday

Well it comes to he who waits I'm told

But I don't need it when I'm old and gray

Yeah I want it today

Well I was born to run to get ahead of the rest

And all that I wanted was to be the best

Just to feel free and be someone

I was born to be fast I was born to run

I was born to run to get ahead of the rest

And all that I wanted was to be the best

Just to feel free and be someone

I was born to be fast I was born to run
