Lyrics
In the day we sweat it out on the streets of a runaway American dream
At night we ride through mansions of glory in suicide machines
Spun from cages on Highway 9
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected and steppin' way over the line
Oh baby, this town rips the bones from your back
It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap
You got to get out while you're young
'Cause tramps like us, baby, we were born to run
Wendy, let me in, I want to be your friend
I want to guard your dreams and your visions
Just wrap your legs round my velvet rims
And strap your hands across my engines
Together we could break this trap
We'll run till we drop, and baby, we'll never go back
Oh, will you walk with me out on the wire?
'Cause baby, I'm a scared and lonely rider
But I've got to find out how it feels
I want to know if love is wild, I want to know if love is real
Can you show me?
Beyond the palace, hemi-powered drones scream down the boulevard
The girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
And the boys try to look so hard
The amusement park rises bold and stark
Kids are huddled on the beach in the mist
I want to die with you, Wendy, on the street tonight
In an everlasting kiss
The highway's jammed with broken heroes
On a last chance power drive
Everybody's on the run tonight
There ain't no place left to hide
Together, Wendy, we'll live with the sadness
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
Oh, some day girl, I don't know when
We'll get to that place we really want to go
And we'll walk in the sun
'Cause tramps like us, baby, we were born to run
Born to run
