You Was Born to Die Lyrics


I don't want no woman, that runs around
Stays out in the street, act like a badfoot clown
You made me love you, and you made me cry
You should remember, you were born to die.
Sweet women are yellow, white, black or brown
My little rider, is the sweetest woman in town.
You made me love you, and you made me cry
You should remember, you were born to die.
I wake up in the morning, face full of frowns,
I can see my baby, been out runnin around
You made me love you, and you made me cry
You should remember, you were born to die.
Now look here woman, give me your right hand
I’ll go back my woman, you go back to your man
You made me love you, and you made me cry

You should remember, you were born to die.
