"I Was Born"

words & music by Ron Leary © 2015

i was born in New York
i was born in Woodstock
i was born late at night
when no one was looking
when no one was looking

i was born in Detroit
i was born in Memphis
i was born to live life
through music i come alive
through music i come alive

i was born in Halifax
i was born in Asheville
i was born to seek you
wherever i may go
wherever i may go

i'll die in London
i'll die in Truro too
i'll die trying
giving everything i got
giving everything i got

see you in St. John's
see you in Seattle too
see you in every town
i can hear you calling out
i can hear you calling out

see you down in Baltimore
see you in Oka too
see you shoulder to shoulder
standing strong against the odds
standing strong against the odds
standing strong against the odds
standing strong against the odds
