The whole town was ours from the texacole

From the county line out to the downtown bar

We made our mark underneath those stars

You drove my jeep like a new corvette

Stole my sheets from me in my bed

Kiss me in the hour that's easy yes

A wild thing

When keeping up with your heart's

Like tryna catch lightning

A holding a hurricane in your arms

We had to find out the hard way you can try

But you can't tame a wild thing

When I was a wild thing wild thing

You had a beautiful reckless way of seeing the world

And I promise you girl I don't see it the same

A love like that can't be contained

It's a wild thing

When keeping up with your heart

Start tryna catch lightning

Or holding a hurricane in your arms

We had to find out the hard way you can try

But you can't tame a wild thing

You and I was

A wild thing wild thing

You and I was

A wild thing wild thing

Danced in the rain in our bare feet

Two am on an empty street

I held on you set me free

Wild thing

We're keeping up with your hearts

Like tryna catch lightning

Or holding a hurricane in your arms

We had to find out the hard way you can try

But you can't tame a wild thing

You and I was

A wild thing wild thing

You and I was

A wild thing wild thing

Throw my sheets in my bed

Kiss me in the eye

It's a wild thing
