Wild Child

David Wilcox

I was born on a barstool

Tellin' lies to the lady on the right

Nobody to come home to

Just hangin' out all night

Lone wolf howling at an empty glass

Way past closing time

Tell me what is on your mind, child

Tell me what is on your mind



And if the world is burning

The flames of change are flashing

For all time

It don't mean nothin'

To a wild child



Sunflowers growing

Through a crack in the sidewalk

Have what it takes to survive

Tough times pass

The things people do

Just to stay alive



And if the world is burning

The flames of change are flashing for all time

It don't mean nothin'

To a wild child

Wooh hoo

Wild child



Yeah wild child

And if the world is burning

The flames of change are flashing for all time

It don't mean nothin'

To a wild child

Wooh hoo



Let the good times roll

Let the fun begin and

Groove groove groove

As though the bad times had

Never been

Let your spirit move



And if the world is burning

The flames of change are flashing

For all time

It don't mean nothin'

To a wild child
