Verse 1

Straight out of nowhere

And a little bit out of our minds

We were courting disaster

With one foot over the line

It was one for the show

And two for ol' shorty and me

We were the wild ones

We had this town up a tree

Chorus

We were the wild ones

The ones they couldn't control

We were survivors

Good hearts - body and soul

We were the winners

'Cause we didn't know we could fail

We were the wild ones

And we had the world by the tail

Verse 2

She was a lady

When a lady wasn't easy to be

Hangin' in limbo

She started hangin' with me

We were the music

'Cause we had a song we could sing

We were the wild ones

And we had the world on a string

Chorus.

We were the wild ones

And we had the world by the tail
