Born Reckless

Spent a lot of time tryin' to grow up

Guess I got a lot of growin' up to do

Used to tell me sit down, hey, shut up

Guess they didn't know what I was goin' through

But I've loved me some girls and I've broke me some hearts

A Casanova in my own right

As I sit here watchin' the sun comin' up

I guess it's okay, yeah, it's okay to say good night

Born reckless

Born reckless

Born reckless (Watch the family cry)

'Cause I was born to be reckless

'Til the day I die

Well you know, I've been shoved around

Hey, but I've done my share of the shovin' too

I guess you get what you deserve

Yeah, you get what's comin' to you

For the life of me, I don't understand

I don't understand how I ever got you

Someone so warm to hold my hand

When this world has beat me back through

Born reckless

Born reckless

Born reckless (Watch the family cry)

'Cause I was born to be reckless

'Til the day I die

Well, what I really wanna say is

I guess I don't know what it is I really wanna say

Anyway, the thing is

I'm just surprised that you're still here with me today

'Cause I've lied and I've cheated and I've spit in your face

I've taken from you exactly what I need

But I want you to know there's no one to take your place

How can we embrace love, how can we make love

At such an high rate of speed?

Yeah, born reckless

Born reckless

Born reckless (Watch the family cry)

'Cause I was born to be reckless

'Til the day, 'til the day I die
