Born Reckless Lyrics


Spend a lot of time tryin' to grow up
Guess I got a lot of growin' up to do
Used to tell me sit down, hey, shut up
Guess they didn't know what I was goin' throughBut I've loved me some girls
And I've broken me some hearts
A Casanova in my own rightAs I see here
Watching the sun coming up
I guess it's okay, yeah, it's okay
To say goodnightBorn reckless, born reckless
Born reckless
(Watch the family cry)
'Cause I was born to be reckless
Till the day I dieWell, you know, I've been shoved around
Hey but I've done my share of shovin' too
I guess you get what you deserve
Yeah, you get what's comin' to youFor the life of me, I don't understand
I don't understand, how I ever got you
Someone so warm to hold my hand

When this world has beat me back throughBorn reckless, born reckless
Born reckless
(Watch the family cry)
'Cause I was born to be reckless
Till the day I dieWell, what I really want to say is
I guess I don't know what it is I really wanna say
Anyway the thing is, I'm just surprised
That you're still here with me today'Cause I've lied and I've cheated
And I've spit in your face
I've taken from you exactly what I needBut I want you to know
There's no one to take your place
How can we embrace love, how can we make love
At such a high rate of speedBorn reckless, born reckless
Born reckless
(Watch the family cry)
'Cause I was born to be reckless
Till the day, till the day I die

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
