Born For Adventure

I am the thief of the highway

Rich man you better take hold

'Cause last night while you lie sleeping

I came to steal all your gold

All the king's horses, all the king's men

Surrounded the chapel to trap me within

A lady in waiting, lips red with rouge

She offered me pleasures, I could not refuse, no, no, no, no

For I was born, born for adventure, women, whiskey and sin

No, I'll never surrender, live by the sword till the end

All the king's horses, all the king's men

Were drinking and dancing, at Fezewig's Inn

They spoke of my capture and of my escape

They called it misfortune but I called it fate, no, no, no, no

For I was born, born for adventure, women, whiskey and sin

No, I'll never surrender, live by the sword till the end
