Born To Hang Lyrics by Mulehead

Rocket Surgery

2001

[Verse 1]
Well, I'm no good, you can tell that by my eyes
At least that's, what my daddy always said
Temper hot like sunshine, but his fists, they fell like rain
(a-one, two, three, four)
Some folks are bound for glory, but I was born to hang
[Verse 2]
In the summer of my 15th faded year
I learned to drive a car, and I learned to drive it fast
If moonshine was a serpent, you could say it bit me with it’s fangs
Some folks are bound for glory, but I was born to hang
[Chorus]
Born to hang, born to hang, ain't that what they always say
Born to hang, born to hang, and I guess I will someday
You can plead with the sheriff, but that would be in vain
Some folks are bound for glory, but I was born to hang
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
So with a sawed off in a hotel pillow case
I walked right in to the Farmersville five and dime
But the stock boy snuck up behind me, with a 3-foot length of chain
Some folks are bound for glory, but I was born to hang
[Chorus]
Born to hang, born to hang, ain't that what they always say
Born to hang, born to hang, and I guess I will someday
You can plead with the sheriff, but that would be in vain
Some folks are bound for glory, but I was born to hang
[Outro]
I said, write it on my tombstone, that boy was born to hang
