Run, daddy said the truck's all yours if you make it
Run, so you spend your 16th summer under that small town sun
Just to make it
Run, when it's all on the line and the ball's on 4th and one
And your mama's in the stands saying, "Hey y'all, that's my son"
And we raised him up to
Run, like the blood in our veins
Yeah, we're all the same, we
Run, living life like it's a highway and we're all stuck in drive
Like a preacher on a Sunday, always going overtime
Like the muddy water rushing in the river outside of town
Yeah, the clock just keeps on running and we can't slow down
No matter where we're going
No matter where we're from
Oh-oh-oh-oh
We're all born to run
Like mascara on your face, 'cause you thought he was the one
But he called you out of the blue and he said we're done
He said I gotta run
Like your mouth in the bar when you just turned 21
And you didn't stop drinking 'til the whole damn room just spun

Run, living life like it's a highway and we're all stuck in drive
Like a preacher on a Sunday, always going overtime
Like the muddy water rushing in the river outside of town
Yeah, the clock just keeps on running and we can't slow down
No matter where we're going
No matter where we're from
Oh-oh-oh-oh
We're all born to run
Through red lights and stop signs
We're racing ourselves
We're tryna get to Heaven
While we run like hell
We run
Living life like it's a highway and we're all stuck in drive
Like a preacher on a Sunday, always going overtime
Like the muddy water rushing in the river outside of town
Yeah, the clock just keeps on running and we can't slow down
No matter where we're going
No matter where we're from
Oh-oh-oh-oh
We're all born to run
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
We're all born to run
