I was born on a railroad track With the weight of the world strapped to my back Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
Looking for a life in a graveyard town If you never get lost, you never get found Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
I fell in love with an impossible girl She was my breath in this strangled world Born to be a soldier boy, born to be soldier boy
She broke my heart with my best friend's name Now my mind still works, but it's not the same Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
We go bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ticky, ticky Bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, lo, lo, lo, lo Bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ticky, ticky Bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, lo, lo, lo, lo
So many people wanna watch things grow Either they're blind or they just don't know Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
My daddy was done before he turned nineteen My momma was run like a fast machine Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
So I cross my heart and I hope to die Like an aeroplane, baby, coming out of the sky Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy Born to be a soldier boy, born to be a soldier boy
We go bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ticky, ticky Bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, lo, lo, lo, lo Bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ticky, ticky Bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, ba-bang, lo, lo, lo, lo
