Some girls dreams of married a rich boy
Some girls dreams of being a playboy
But since I was young
I only had one
I dream to be a cowboy
I used to struck up and down my street
Wearing a stetson and boots on my feet
And in my mind I go back in time
To a land of sand and the whiskey
And ooh, ooh
All the other kids
They used to tell me I was strange
But ooh, ooh
I didn't care what they did
I knew I belong on the plains
'Cause I was born to be a cowboy
Singing in a campfire song
I was born to be a cowboy
But the cowboys are gone
Soon I gave up on the rodeo
And start to listen to the radio
Galactic sound and I've found
That I was born to rock and roll
I started playing the electric guitar
And learned to limited repertoire
And dreamed of the days
When the band still played
And good music could make you a star
But ooh, ooh
Most people say I should quit
Said I didn't belong on stage
But ooh, ooh
I didn't care what they did
I knew I had songs in my veins
'Cause I was born to be a rockstar
Live fast and die young
I was born to be a rock star
But the rockstars are gone
How do you find your place in a world
Where you don't belong?
All the words where I should have been
They've all come and gone
But I was born to be someone
It was written in my faith
I was born to be someone
But maybe I was born too late
