My Mama had me in the sleeper of a diesel She never heard about a cradle by the fireside Her and Daddy takin' turns behind a steering wheel Listen to the wingin' wind Singing me a lullaby
I got my baby teeth a-chewing on a naughahyde I got my baby bottle seated at the truck stop Mama taught me how to read from a road map Countin' out the billboards Lookin' for a speed trap
CHORUS Upstate, Interstate, livin' on a highway Dirt road, every load, anyway's my way Two lane, four lane, deep snow, heavy rain Listen to the DJ, rolling down the road Oh yeah - I was born to roll
My Daddy taught me how to drive when I was sixteen I got my chauffеr's by the time that I was sevеnteen When I was twenty-one and Ma and Pa were tired They traded in their Peterbilt and bought a little motorhome
I kept my savings and I put it in a semi Hauling everything from underwear to dynamite You can keep the mortgage and the diapers and the drano I'll take the highway from Boston to Austin
Yeah baby
Upstate, Interstate, livin' on a highway Dirt road, every load, anyway's my way Two lane, four lane, deep snow, heavy rain Listen to the DJ, rolling down the road Oh yeah - I was born to roll
-[Instrumental break - pedal steel / fiddle]-
Upstate, Interstate, livin' on a highway Dirt road, every load, anyway's my way Two lane, four lane, deep snow, heavy rain Listen to the DJ, rolling down the road Oh yeah - I was born to roll
Oh yeah - I was born to roll
Oh yeah (yeah) yeah (yeah) yeah… I was born to roll
-[Instrumental boogie picks up]-
Running down to Nashville, next stop Knoxville Coming down to Louisville, man alive Driving on the shoulder, ten years older Red line kicking into overdrive Two lane blacktop Doublewide can't stop...
