Judy Collins - Born To The Breed CAPO: 1st Fret [Intro] [Verse 1] I was only nineteen The morning you were born With your hair fine and red And your eyes like my own [Verse 2] Barely a woman With only a song I sang to make you smile And held you all night long [Verse 3] Home through the streets With you in my arms Cold winter mornings In a Colorado town [Verse 4] I’ve seen you stumble You’ve watched me fall You know I’ve got nothing You know we’ve got it all [Verse 5] Trucks roll by and the rain coming down Does that old parka keep you dry? Sixteen years old out on the road Trying to get to the sky [Verse 6] Back in September You called me on the phone "Ma you know I love you But I gotta be own my own" [Verse 7] "Comes a time in a boy’s life When he’s got to be a man Please don’t try to find me Please try to understand" [Verse 8] Now he’s playing guitar In a rock and roll band Looking like a baby Talking like a man [Verse 9] The life of a guitar man Is a hard life to live What can I tell you You were born to the breed [Verse 10] Rain comes down the trucks rolling by Is that old poncho gonna keep you dry? Sixteen years old January child Trying to get to the sky [Verse 11] I’ve watched you growing Through all these years You’ve seen me stumble I’ve watched your tears [Verse 12] Sometimes there was roses Sometimes there was thorns But I know you’re gonna make it As sure as you were born [Verse 13] And I hope from what you wanted You get what you need I know you’re gonna make it You were born to the breed [Outro] Sixteen years old January child Trying to get to the sky______

Cette chanson évoque les souvenirs d'une mère regardant son enfant grandir et prendre son envol. Elle parle de ses premières années, de la tendresse d'un lien fort entre eux, tout en reconnaissant les défis et les luttes qu'ils ont traversés ensemble. La mère se rappelle des moments simples, comme chanter pour apaiser son bébé ou le porter dans les rues froides d'une ville du Colorado. Avec le temps, elle observe son enfant devenir un jeune homme, déterminé à vivre sa propre vie tout en lui promettant qu'il va réussir, comme il était destiné à le faire. Le texte dépeint un parcours de vie, mêlant nostalgie et encouragement, tout en soulignant la beauté et la difficulté d’être parent. C'est une réflexion touchante sur l'amour inconditionnel et les aspirations qui se transmettent de génération en génération.
