Born For Adventure Written by Dennis DeYoung Lead Vocals by Dennis DeYoung Listen on YouTube I am the thief of the highway Rich man you better take hold 'Cause last night while you lie sleeping I came to steal all your gold All the King's horses All the King's men Surrounded the chapel To trap me within A Lady in waiting Lips red with rouge She offered me pleasures I could not refuse No, no, no For I was born Born for adventure Women whisky and sin No I'll never surrender Live by the sword till the end All the King's horses All the King's men Were drinking and dancing At Fezewig's Inn They spoke of my capture And of my escape They called it misfortune But I called it fate No, no, no For I was born Born for adventure Women whisky and sin No I'll never surrender Live by the sword till the end

America....America...America..America.. America....America...America..America.. Red white and blue, gaze in your looking glass You're not a child anymore Red, white, and blue, the future is all but past So lift up your heart, make a new start And lead us away from here
