Born to lose
From Theholdsteady
Could be one of five songs:
- A 1962 single by Ray Charles
- A 1962 single by Johnny Cash
- A 1977 single by Johnny Thunders & The Heartbreakers
- A 1999 single by Zakk Wylde's Black Label Society
- A 2002 single by Dee Dee Ramone
In this context it's likely to be the Johnny Cash one, which is a version of a tradition country song. The Ray Charles version is the same traditional song. The Johnny Thunders song is also a possibility because The Hold Steady's sound could easily appeal to both fans of Bruce Springsteen and fans of Johnny Thunders.
