"Wild Thing" lyrics

The whole town was ours
From the Texaco, from the county line out to the downtown bars
We made our mark underneath those stars
You drove my Jeep like a new Corvette
Stole my sheets from me in my bed
Kissed me in the aisle of that CVS

It's a wild thing
When keeping up with your heart's 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 had beautiful reckless ways
Of seeing the world and I promise you girl I don't see it the same
Love like that can't be contained

It's a wild thing
When keeping up with your heart's 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
And 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
At two AM on an empty street
I held on, you set me free

It's a wild thing
When keeping up with your heart's 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
And you and I was a wild thing, wild thing
You and I was a wild thing, wild thing

You drove my Jeep like a new Corvette
Stole my sheets from me in my bed
Kissed me in the aisle of that CVS

It's a wild thing
