Born Loose

(álbum: Foot Loose & Fancy Free - 1977)

Ooowe baby, don't you count on me
To be here when the sun goes down
'Cause all those mean old friends of mine are calling
Calling way down the line
Somebody send me a one-way ticket
Got to get away from here
Put me on a jet back to London city
Gotta get a belly full of beer
Oh yeah

Smile for the camera, please mind your manner
You've got to keep your image clean
Clench your fist and don't you take a piss
Makes you wanna slash your wrist
Stand up, shut up, sit down, throw up
All I wanna do is sing
Responsibility and fidelity
Never meant a thing to me

I was born loose, running wild
Keep your hands off, child
You can't change me now
I was born loose, running wild
Keep your hands off me, baby
'Cause you're too late, too late

Big bombs are crashing, never stop clashing
Wanting every woman in town
Some tried to train me, one tried to maim me
But you can't keep a good man down
Church bells ringing, all the kids singing
When we played the last date on the tour
Janis and Jimi, can't you hear me
Knocking on Heaven's door?

Born loose
Was born loose, baby
Slow me down
You can't slow me down

I was born loose
Born loose, born loose
Wrong side of my mama
Wrong side of my daddy
Wrong side of the tracks
I was born loose, baby
I was born loose
Can't change me now
Can't change me now
'Cause you're too late now
Too late now
Too late now baby
Too late now
To change me now
Never change me now
Born loose
Born loose
