Born To Be Mild

Lyrics by Cory Smith, music by Steppenwolf (Born to Be Wild)

Lots of people love to

Get out on the highway

Lookin' for adventure

But that’s never been my way


I like to watch Wheel of Fortune

Every night on my TV

And after it's done I like to

Watch Jeopardy


I like chillin’ out and

I like being mellow

Never cause a rift cause

I’m a decent fellow


Yeah darlin’ I never even

Raise my voice, speak out or yell

And if I ever get offended

Nobody can tell


Like a meek, little child

I was born, born to be mild

And that’s probably why

People think I’m shy


Born to be mild

Born to be mild


People call me gentle

Delicate and tender

Never temperamental

Not a rule bender


One time someone cut me off and

Hit their brakes for about a mile

Later on I pulled up beside them

And gave them a smile


Like a meek, little child

I was born, born to be mild

And that’s probably why

People think I’m shy


Born to be mild

Born to be mild
