lyrics

Some Are Born

When I'm blinded by that backdoor light
I'm gonna feel my way through the darkroom
Climb those stairs and feel alright
Sleep where lonely shadows loom

Bathe in crimson clouds burning
Sleep in sheets of sinking sky
Wake on thoughts of evenings yearning
Doubt my sense and don't ask why

(Chorus)

Some are born in Midwest winters
Some are born in Texas heat
For now I know the only difference
Is some die out on the street.

I know an open door in Tennessee
A girl worth loving till high noon
She may go and make a fool out of me
But I'll be leaving before too soon

(Chorus)
