~Favorite Born Song's~





Creedence Clearwater Revival - Born On The Bayou



Songwriters: JOHN C. FOGERTY Now when I was just a little boy standin' to my Daddy's knee My Poppa said son don't let the man get you do what he done to me 'cause he'll get you 'cause he'll get you now now.

I can remember the fourth of July runnin' through the backwood bare. And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin' chasin' down a hoodoo there Chasin' down a hoodoo there.

Born on the bayou Born on the bayou Born on the bayou.

Wish I was back on the bayou rollin' with some Cajun Queen. Wishin' I were a freight train, oh, just a-chooglin' on down to New Orleans.

Born on the bayou Born on the bayou Born on the bayou.

I can remember the fourth of July, runnin' through the backwood bare. And I can still hear my old hound dog barkin', chasin' down a hoodoo there, Chasin' down a hoodoo there.

Born on the bayou Born on the bayou Born on the bayou.

The Killers - Runaways


Blonde hair blowin' in the summer wind A blue-eyed girl playing in the sand I'd been on a trail for a little while But that was the night that she broke down and held my hand The teenage rush, she said, 'maybe I'll just runaway, we got time' Well that ain't much... We can't wait 'til tomorrow You gotta know that this is real, baby why you wanna fight it? It's the one thing you can choose, oh!

We got engaged on a Friday night I swore on the head of our unborn child that I could take care of the three of us But I got the tendency to slip when the nights get wild. It's in my blood She says she might just runaway somewhere else, some place good We can't wait 'til tomorrow You gotta know that this is real, baby why you wanna fight it? It's the one thing you can choose

Let's take a chance baby we can't lose And we're all just runaways I knew that when I met you, I'm not gonna let you runaway I knew that when I held you, I wasn't lettin' go

We used to look at the stars and confess our dreams Hold each other to the morning light We used to laugh, now we only fight Baby are you lonesome now?

At night I come home after they go to sleep Like a stumbling ghost, I haunt these halls There's a picture of us on our wedding day I recognize the girl but I can't settle in these walls

We can't wait 'til tomorrow No we're caught up in the appeal, baby why you wanna hide it? It's the last thing on my mind (Why you wanna hide it?) I turn the engine over and my body just comes alive and we all just runaway I knew that when I met you, I'm not gonna let you runaway I knew that when I held you, I wasn't lettin go, no no no! (No no no!) (And we're all just runaways) Yeah runaway (And we're all just runaways) Yeah

I’m surprised that nobody here has mentioned “Highwayman”. Johnny Cash, Willie Nelson, Wayland Jennings and Kris Kristofferson, singing a four-minute compilation of American history. Being born in it, over and over.
“Where steel and water did collide, a place called Boulder on the Wild Colorado...”
That’s one of my all-time favorite songs. I get goosebumps every time I listen to it. In fact, I’m going to cut this thread aloose and go to YouTube right now and listen to it.

Elvis Presley: "In the Ghetto"

I can never hear that song without immediately thinking of "In a Yugo."
