Mama said " Wild man won't you listen

And come take a seat right here in the kitchen

You gotta wild heart gotta sweet soul

Gonna need 'em both baby down the road but

Right now I need you to listen"

She said " Ooh baby it's a wild world

And I hope you find yourself a good girl

Life is short some days are long

You're gonna need a rock you can lean on

Ooh baby it's a wild world

So stay wild man"

Don't put your faith in the green of a dollar

And be proud of the blue around your collar

Give a little more take a little less

You ain't done till you done your best

Wear it on your sleeve instead of hidden in your chest yeah

She said " Ooh baby it's a wild world

And I hope you find yourself a good girl

Life is short some days are long

You're gonna need a rock you can lean on

Ooh baby it's a wild world

So stay wild man"

Be reckless when you're chasin' love

But when you get it hold it like a dove yeah

Ooh- ooh- ooh- ooh

Ooh- ooh- ooh- ooh

Mama said " Wild man won't you listen

Every second is God given

So forgive yourself you're just a man

And He's too big for us to understand"

Mama told me all these things in the kitchen

She said " Ooh baby it's a wild world

And I hope you find yourself a good girl

Life is short some days are long

You're gonna need a rock you can lean on"

She said " Ooh baby it's a wild world

So stay wild man

Stay wild man
