Seventeen, Headin' Down That Road Of Freedom
Well Everybody Said "Son, You'll Never Get Nowhere"
With My Stubbon Ways, Well I Knew That I Would Show Them
You Can't Keep Somethin' Wild Locked Up In A Cage

After Time Went By They Finally Realized I Was On My Way
Goin' Down That Two Lane Road
Stretched Out Across The Desert
With The Hot Sun Beatin' Down On Me
I Don't Know Where I'm Going
Or When I'm Gonna Get There
But When I Do It Will Set My Mind At Ease
I Was Born, I Was Born To Be Free

Lookin' Back Now I Think About Those Days
And How That One Summer Changed Everything
But In The Back Of My Mind
I Still Hear The Voices
Reminding Me That I Did It Right Thing

After Time Went By They Finally Realized I Was On My Way
Goin' Down That Two Lane Road
Stretched Out Across The Desert
With The Hot Sun Beatin' Down On Me
I Don't Know Where I'm Going
Or When I'm Gonna Get There
But When I Do It Will Set My Mind At Ease
I Was Born, I Was Born To Be Free

After Time Went By They Finally Realized I Was On My Way
Goin' Down That Two Lane Road
Stretched Out Across The Desert
With The Hot Sun Beatin' Down On Me
I Don't Know Where I'm Going
Or When I'm Gonna Get There
But When I Do It Will Set My Mind At Ease

And I Was Goin' Down That Two Lane Road
Stretched Out Across The Desert
With The Hot Sun Beatin' Down On Me
I Don't Know Where I'm Going
Or When I'm Gonna Get There
But When I Do It Will Set My Mind At Ease
I Was Born, I Was Born To Be Free
Born To Be Free
