born to the breed (1995) - judy collins lyrics
[verse 1]
i was only nineteen
the morning you were born
with your hair fine and red
your eyes like my own
barely a woman
with only a song
i sang to keep you smiling
held you all night long
[verse 2]
home through the streets
with you in my arms
cold winter mornings
in a colorado town
you’ve seen me stumble
i’ve watched you fall
you know we’ve got nothing
you know we’ve got it all
[chorus]
rain comes down and the trucks rolling by
does that old parka keep you dry?
sixteen years old, out on the road
trying to get to the sky
[verse 3]
back in september
you called me on the phone
“ma, you know i love you
but i gotta be on my own
comes a time in a boy’s life
whеn he’s gotta be a man
pleasе don’t try to find me
please try to understand
[chorus]
“got me a job in a rock and roll band
i’m gonna try to see if i can get by
sixteen years old, out on the road
trying to get to the sky”
[verse 4]
ooh
ooh
ooh
ooh
ooh
ooh
ooh
ooh
[verse 5]
i’ve watched you grow
through all these years
you’ve seen me stumble
i’ve dried your tears
sometimes there were roses
sometimes it was th*rns
i know you’re gonna make it
as sure as you were born
[outro]
and i hope from what you wanted
you get what you need
i know you’re gonna make it
you were born to the breed
sixteen years old, out on the road
trying to get to the sky
ooh
ooh
