Well I was born standing up
I'm gonna die laying down
I laugh like your baby
Lord, I cry like your clown
I tell you baby
I'm all through
I'm all through just paying my dues.
Cause I'm a man
And I'm on the run
But I'm through paying my dues
I'm through with you.
Why, you can laugh all day
You can cry all night
Turn me on
Or you can shut off my lights
Talk about all your cares and woe
I tell you baby
I just don't care no more!
Cause I'm a man
And I'm on the run
I'm all through paying my dues
Guess I'm through with you.
Oh.
Well I was born standing up
I'm gonna die laying down
I laugh like your baby
Lord, I cry like your clown
I tell you baby
Now I'm all through
I'm all through just paying my dues.
Cause I'm a man
And I'm on the run
But I'm through paying my dues
I'm through with you.
Cause I'm a man on the run
Cause I'm a man on the run
Cause I'm a man on the run
Alright.
Well I was born standing up
