Record Tracklist

  1. Born Yesterday -:-- / 3:23

Were you born yesterday?
Oh yes I was, rose from the dust
Spun around until I found I’d had enough
Now I’m hauling down the road looking for a lighter load
Paying all the debts I owe and calling bluffs

My conscience clean like a machine
Letting go of what was holding to my dreams
I’ve seen every shade of gray, there can be no other way
No there’s nothing you can pay for feeling free

Were you born yesterday? Oh, why yes I was

So here I stand, scars be damned
I weigh the cost of jumping off with where I land
No it don’t matter where I go cuz I’m always coming home
Just like every seed I’ve sewn with my own hands

Just like the rocks beneath the docks
I be rolling with the flow that never stops
It may wash away my plans, turn the mountain into sand
But I know that it began before the clock

Were you born yesterday? Oh, why yes I was
