Vincent will you teach me how to paint
Teresa will I ever be a saint
John I really think your songs are great
I was born too late
William will you teach me how to write
Cassius will you show me how to fight
Thomas A. I think I see the light
I was born tonight
Ive had a hard time leaving this town
Ive been losing everything that Ive found
Im gonna search the sky, kiss the ground
Build it up and tear it back down
Ive had a hard time leaving this place
Ive been counting all the lines on my face
Im gonna curse the sky, hit the ground
What goes up comes tumbling down
Jimi show me how you play that thing
Elvis will I ever be a king
and Jerry all the joy and love you bring
I was born to sing
Martin Luther King show me the way
Jesus Buddha teach me how to pray
Christopher I think I see the bay
I was born today
