Intro

 We were born to be, alive

 We were born to be, alive

 Born, born to be alive (born to be alive)

 You see we're born, born, born, born to be alive

 Times was on my side when I was runnin'in

 down the street it was the By by by

 A suitcase and an old guitar and

 something new to occupy my Mind mind mind

 You see we're born, born, born to be alive (born too be alive)

 You see we're born, born, born (born too be alive)

 People ask me why I never

 find a place to stop and settle Down down down

 But I never wanted all the things that

 people need to find their Lives lives lives

 You see we're born, born, born to be alive (born too be alive)

 You see we're born, born, born

 (born too be alive) to be alive, to be alive

 It's good to be alive, to be alive, to be alive

 It's good to be alive

--- Instrumental

Times was on my side when I was runnin'in

 down the street it was the By by by
