(david lee murphy/jimbeau hinson)
Came out swingin and a kickin with my heels dug in
Puttin up a fight like they aint seen since
The doctor held me up looked me in the face
Said he didnt have to slap me but he did it anyway
I dont know why
Just born that way
No I dont know why
Just born that way
No I never had nothin and I know I never will
All my daddy left me was a funeral bill
If somethings too easy somethings wrong I know
cause I was born the gift of a hard way to go
I dont know why
Just born that way
No I dont know why
Just born that way
You know all in all it aint such a bad lot
You learn to live with what little you got
Never had a job that didnt stink
Never really cared what anybody thinks
I dont know why
Just born that way
No I dont know why
Just born that way
