My daddy wants my hide,
He hates my beat up ride,
He says I can't be tamed,
Ain't got five bucks to my name,
I'm spicy, not mild,
I'm your man, if you like,
Chorus
W-I-L-D,
C'mon, run away with me,
Tip toe, sneak out with the one,
Your momma warned you 'bout.
Run so fast, go so far,
Even the F.B.I.,
Won't figure out where we are.
Free.
W-I-L-D.
You and me,
W-I-L-D.
Don't know how to fix cars,
Enough to work in a garage.
I can't offer you the stars,
But, I can play this here guitar.
I'm a man, I ain't no child,
I'm the one who'll drive you,
W-I-L-D,
C'mon, run away with me,
Tip toe, sneak out with the one,
Your momma warned you 'bout.
Run so fast, go so far,
Even the F.B.I.,
Won't figure out where we are.
Free.
W-I-L-D.
You and me,
W-I-L-D.
Bridge
Born to run, in the front seat,
Born to love, in the back seat.
W-I-L-D,
C'mon, run away with me,
Tip toe, sneak out with the one,
Your momma warned you 'bout.
Run so fast, go so far,
Even the F.B.I.,
Won't figure out where we are.
Free.
W-I-L-D.
You and me,
W-I-L-D.
Yeah, we're free.
W-I-L-D.
You and me,
W-I-L-D.
