Story Behind The Song
I got a little irritated one night when some folks tried to talk me into being "born again". (I told them that I was born just fine the first time.) I went home and wrote this tune instead of getting violent.

Lyrics
I was born, I was born,
Just one time.
I was born, said I was born,
Just the one time.
Don't need to be born again,
Being born once was just fine...
I was born, well... I was born,
Just'a one time.
Said I was born, ahh honey, I was born,
That one time.
Don't need no reincarnation,
When being born once turned out just fine...
I was born, say it, I was born,
Only one time.
I was born, sweet mercy, I was born,
Just that one time.
Don't need no more water splashed on me,
I was wet enough,
That first time...
