Les Paroles :

(He’s born to be wild)

Free and untamed
That’s how I’ve grown
(He’s Johnny Raven)
Setting down ain’t my nature
Roots I’ll never own
(He’s Johnny Raven)
Oh, your smile
But tell me, ain’t your child
How can you cage a bird
Born to be wild

I’m Johnny Ravenby
(He’s Johnny Raven)
By and by
Oh, I’m gonna leave your nest, girl
Another nest to try
Ooh, Johnny Raven
Girl, you know I shouldn’t have loved you
Yeah, but I gotta leave you
When my restless heart says goodbye

Look at you, little girl
You feel love so deep
If I could change in a second
I’d change for you like that
Stay right here for keeps
But I’m home free for no thrills
Stray I will
Seems I gotta need one girl
Never can feel

Yeah, I’m Johnny Raven
By and by
I’m gonna leave your nest
Another nest to try
Ooh, I’m Johnny Raven
Girl, you know I shouldn’t have loved you
Yeah, but I’ve got to leave you
When my restless heart says goodbye

Everybody knows my name
I’m Johnny Raven
Yeah, yeah
By and by
I’m gonna fly
And when you cry
A part of me’s gonna die

Ooh, I’m Johnny Raven
By and by
I’m gonna fly
And when you cry
A part of me is gonna die
