There are so many songs that start with " Born to" that you would think that every person on Earth was born to do something else. Musicians never seem to get tired of telling us of what they were born to do. How many can you think of? I'm just going to give one example because I got a feeling this artist was making fun of this trend:

Born to Laugh at Tornadoes. by Was (Not Was)

Quite possibly the most patriotic songs for America (not 'mericah - cause that'd be I'm Proud to be an American garbage - sorry, not meaning to offend, but that's not the America I love).

born on the bayou
born in the USA (borderline not my cup of tea)

I suppose it isn't exactly born to..........................................................................

The first song came to me was Born To Be Alive but that's just been mentioned.

But I've thought of another that's not on bobbyb5's list - I really liked this when it was out.
