See the stretching sun at dawning   Wipe the stardust from his eyes   Feel the morning breezes yawning   Telling me it's time to rise   Telling me it's time to rise      I was born to take the highway   I was born to chase a dream   Any road at all is my way   Any place is where I've been   Anything is what I've seen      Gambler's gold is made for squandering   Miser's silver is to hoard   My gold as the sky goes wandering   My silver is the drinking goard   My silver is the drinking goard      I was born to take the highway   I was born to chase a dream   Any road at all is my way   Any place is where I've been   Anything is what I've seen      I've skipped on concrete   Danced on cobbles   Stepped on pavement in the heat   I've seen where children crouched at marbles   Made chalk circles in the street   Found a penny at my feet   Found a penny at my feet      I was born to take the highway   I was born to chase a dream   Any road at all is my way   Any place is where I've been   Anything is what I've seen      Now I know a road that winds forever   Through the land the rainbows run   You cross the bridge from now till never   Take the first turn past the sun   Take the first turn beyond the sun      I was born to take the highway   I was born to chase a dream   Any road at all is my way   Any place is where I've been   Anything is what I've seen
