Jimmy Cliff - The EMI Years 1973-'75

Born To Win

I am born to win.
I am born to win.
Being lost and found, turned upside down, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Being cast aside and being despised, uhm, uhm, uhm.
Like Daniel in the lion's den, and Johann in the bally of the whale,
I'm not alone so I cannot fail, no, no, no.
And I'm born to win.

I am born to win;
yes I'm born to win.
I've been rejected, yet considered dead, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I've been accused and been refused uhm, uhm, uhm.
But the stone that the belly refused shall be the head on the stones.
I cannot fail 'cause I'm not all alone, no, no, no.
And I'm born to win.

I am born to win.
I am born to win.
Being lost and found, turned upside down, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I've been accused and been refused uhm, uhm, uhm.
Like Daniel in the lion's den, and Johann in the bally of the whale,
I'm not alone so I cannot fail, no, no, no.
And I'm born to win.
yes I'm born, born, born to win.
I am born, born, born, born to win.
