[Intro]
One, two
[Verse 1]
In the day, we sweat it out on the streets
Of a runaway American dream
At night, we ride through mansions of glory
In suicide machines
Sprung from cages on Highway 9
Chrome wheeled, fuel injected, steppin' out over the line
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
[Verse 2]
Wendy, let me in, I wanna be your friend
I wanna guard your dreams and visions
Just wrap your legs 'round thеse velvet rims
Strap your hands cross my еngine
Together we could break this trap
Run 'til we drop, baby, we'll never go back
Oh, walk with me out on the wire
'Cause I'm just a scared and lonely rider
But I gotta find out how it feels
I wanna know if love is wild
I wanna know if love is real
Oh, I wanna know (One, two)
[Saxophone Solo]
[Bridge]
Beyond the palace, hemi-powered drones
Scream down the boulevard
The girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
The boys try to look so hard
The amusement park rises bold and stark
Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
I wanna die with you, Wendy, on the street tonight
In an everlasting kiss, kiss
[Instrumental Break]
One, two, three
[Verse 3]
The highways jammed with broken heroes
On a last chance power drive
Everybody's out on the run tonight
There's no place left to hide
Together, Wendy, we can live with the sadness
I'll love you with all the madness in my soul
Oh, someday girl, I don't know when
We're gonna get to that place
We really want to go, and we'll walk in the sun
But 'til then, tramps like us, baby, we were born to run
Tramps like us, baby, we were born to run
Tramps like us, baby, we were born to run
[Outro]
Woah-oh
Woah-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh
Woah-oh
Woah-oh
Woah-h
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
