[Verse 1]
Born to lose
But I was built for pain, oh
I cut the noose
I remember the day
All hell broke loose
All hell broke loose
Caged rage
Call it small town blues
But I knew it well
That we had somethin' to prove
Couple country boys with nothin’ to lose

[Chorus]
Make it out or die tryin'
All I know is touch and go
They call me Southwind
I keep blowin' down the road

[Verse 2]
You better follow your heart son
All that you need
Is in your soul
Forgive me mama
I wasn’t using it
So I sold it to rock and roll
Perfect disaster
Wheels keep on turnin' faster
65 south take me home
[Chorus]
Make it out or die tryin'
All I know is touch and go
They call me Southwind
I keep blowin' down the road

[Bridge]
Deep inside, I'm buried in the pines
Muddy waters wash over me
Take the back way
Down that two lane
Lead me to the crossroads
One more time
Take it to the limit
One more time
Baby give me that first time feelin'

[Chorus]
Make it out or die tryin'
All I know is touch and go
They call me Southwind
I keep blowin' down
Blowin’ down the road

[Ending]
Make it out or die tryin’
All I know is touch and go
They call me Southwind
One more time
Take it to the limit
One more time
Take it to the limit
Born to lose
Cut the noose
And remember
The day
All hell broke loose
