Born Too Late Lyrics - Genuine: The Alan Jackson Story - Alan Jackson

I stare out the window at this long interstate 

Backed up in traffic, I just sit here and wait 

And dream of wide-open spaces, no fences or gates 

But this is the 90's, guess I was just born too late

The smog from the city, it sure burns my eyes 

Sometimes I wonder just how we'll survive 

We keep runnin' faster but are we losing the race 

Well I guess I'm old fashioned, just born too late 

Just born too late 

For these modern days 

I should have lived 

Before microwaves 

I'm like an endangered species 

Just captured by fate 

But I have no choice 

I was just born too late 

This built in computer tells me how far I've been 

Another advancement of this age we live in 

But it can't change a scenery or help me escape 

The constant reminder that I was just born too late 

Photos 

I was just born too late 

For these modern days 

I should have lived 

Before microwaves 

I'm like an endangered species 

Just captured by fate 

But I have no choice 

I was just born too late 

No I have no choice, I was just born too late
