Get your motor running
Head out on the highway
Looking for adventure
In whatever comes our way

You're not gonna make it happen
All the world is a loving place
Fire all of your guns at once then
Explode into space

I like streaking lightning
A heavy metal thunder
Wrestling with the wind
And the feeling that I'm under

Like a true nature's child
We were born, born to be wild
We were flyin' so high,
I never wanna die

Born to be wild
Born to be wild

I like streaking lightning
A heavy metal thunder
Wrestling with the wind
And the feeling that I'm under

You're not gonna make it happen
All the world is a loving place
Fire all of your guns at once then
Explode into space

Like a true nature's child

"Born to be Wild" was written by Canadian musician Mars Bonfire, first performed by Canadian-American rock group Steppenwolf who released it as a single from their self-titled album in 1968. The b-side to the Steppenwolf single was Everybody’s Next One - that Ambrose Slade also recorded for this album.
Slade would later record Born to be Wild for their 1972 live album Slade Alive!, where the song would also be frequently performed in the band’s live set list, both before and after the recording of this studio version.
Allmusic.com wrote "Holder does an impressive John Kaye, and the inclusion of two tracks from the first Steppenwolf album indicate the real influence behind Slade. They were Britain's Steppenwolf. Everybody's Next One and Born to Be Wild sound great in the hands of these U.K. rockers, the essential keyboards ripped away from Born to Be Wild giving us a garage rock version full of life. If only Jim Lee put some wild and crazy violin on this to replace the missing keys. Slade Alive doubled the length, turning Born to Be Wild into one of their hard rock show stoppers, but the original incarnation here has more charm." Allmusic.com also wrote "A cover of Born to Be Wild sets them up for the definitive version featured on the first live album."
