Born To Run [Live] [German translation]

In the day we sweat it out on the streets

Of a runaway American dream

At night we ran through the mansions of glory

In suicide machines

Sprung from cables on highway 9

Chrome wheeled, fuel injection and stepping out over the line

Whoa-oh, baby, this town rips the bones from your back

It's a death trap, it's a suicide rap

We gotta get out while we're young

'Cause tramps like us, baby, we were born to run

Wendy, let me in, I wanna be a friend

I wanna guard your dreams and visions

Just wrap your legs 'round these velvet rims

And strap your hands 'cross my engines

Together, Wendy, we can break this trap

We will run till we drop, and baby, we'll never go back

Whoa-oh, will you walk with me out on the wire?

'Cause babe, I'm just a scared and lonely rider

You know I gotta know how I feel

I wanna know if love is wild

Babe, I wanna know if love is real

Beyond the Palace hemi-powered drones

Scream down the boulevard

Girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors

And the boys try to look so hard

The amusement park rises bold and stark

Kids are huddled on the beach in the mist

I wanna die with you, Wendy, on a street tonight

In an everlasting kiss

The highway's jammed with broken heroes

On a last chance power drive

And everybody's out on the run tonight

But there's no place left to hide

Together, Wendy, we can live with the sadness

I'll love you with all of the madness in my soul

Whoa-oh, someday, girl, I don't know when

We're gonna get to that place where we really wanted to go

And we'll walk in the sun

But till then, tramps like us, baby, we were born to run

Baby, we were born to run
