Well, I was born on the side of a road
A gap in the hedge, did you hear what I said?
Born in a house with no slates,
But I wouldn't switch, I didn't have a stitch.
Always been out on a limb,
I've been hard to mend like a kick in the shins
You only see me smile when I eat up a country mile
Born on the green light, a mission to move,
Something to groove, an itch in my shoes,
I heard the wail of the train
From a burning stack and I jumped on the back
We'll the engineer threw the switch
And got to my brain, I've never been the same
You'll only see me smile when I eat up a country mile
Gotta make tracks, gotta loose some rust,
Grease my heels, I'll race to bust,
Don't blink your eye or you wont see me again
Well I was born on the spoke of a wheel,
Not part of a set and I'm runnin' yet
I ran before I could walk,
The price of the fare was hardly ever there
I saw an eighteen-wheeler move
And I couldn't choose, I just had to cruise,
You'll only see me smile when I eat up a country mile
Well I was born on the wrong side of the road,
A gap in the hedge, did you hear what I said?
Born in a house with no slates
But I wouldn't switch, I didn't have a stitch.
I've always been out on a limb,
I've been hard to mend like a kick in the shins
Gotta make tracks, gotta raise the dust,
Grease my heels, I'll race to bust,
Don't blink an eye or you won't see me again
