text: In the day, we sweat it out on the streets
  Of a runaway American dream
  At night, we ride through mansions of glory
  In suicide machines
  Sprung from cages out on Highway 9
  Chrome wheeled, fuel injected and steppin out over the line
  Oh, baby this town rips the bones from your back
  Its a death trap, its a suicide rap
  We gotta get out while were young
  `Cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run
  Yes, girl, we were
  Wendy let me in, I wanna be your friend
  I want to guard your dreams and visions
  Just wrap your legs round these velvet rims
  And strap your hands across my engines
  Together we could break this trap
  Well run till we drop, baby well never go back
  Oh, will you walk with me out on the wire?
  `Cause baby Im just a scared and lonely rider
  But I gotta know how it feels
  I want to know if love is wild, babe
  I want to know if love is real
  Oh, can you show me?
  Beyond the palace, hemi-powered drones
  Scream down the boulevard
  The girls comb their hair in rearview mirrors
  And the boys try to look so hard
  The amusement park rises bold and stark
  Kids are huddled on the beach in a mist
  I wanna die with you, Wendy, on the streets tonight
  In an everlasting kiss
   The highways jammed with broken heroes
  On a last chance power drive
  Everybodys out on the run tonight
  But theres no place left to hide
  Together, Wendy, we can live with the sadness
  Ill love you with all the madness in my soul
  Oh, someday girl, I dont know when
  Were gonna get to that place
  Where we really want to go, and well walk in the sun
  But till then, tramps like us
  Baby, we were born to run
  Oh honey, tramps like us
  Baby, we were born to run
  Come on with me, tramps like us
  Baby, we were born to run
