Wild One Lyrics - Wild One - Rooney

Wild one, you ran all over town 

They always said you were the best around 

Wild one, you lived a young man's life 

Lived it up fast, lived it up all the time, but all the while 

You just left her stranded, 

Empty handed in the night 

She just begged you, 

You just lived your wild life 

[Chorus] 

Wild one, why'd you have to raise your hand? 

You wild one, why'd you have to go and be a wild one? 

Wild one, you made the Dallas news 

Made the first page of the New Yorker, too 

Wild one, you're in the magazine 

Your face is even on the weeks review, sad, but true 

You're the toast of the town 

At your best, but you're in the ground 

Now they misquote you 

Your words are lost and never found 

You lost control and put yourself in danger, you 

[Chorus] 

Standing in the doorway long past midnight, 

Your time has come, you're done with sunshine 

Pack your suitcase, your time has come 

Goodbye everyone, goodbye wild one 

(Wild life had just begun, people said you were the devil's son) 

(Jumped the neighbor with the loaded gun, you paid the price) 

(You were a wild one)
