Wild hearted son

Baby, the world didn't want me to run

To try and break me down to my knees, yeah

Wild hearted, yeah-yeah, yeah



Well now

You know, i shoot from the hip now

My fist raised in the air

I'm a whirlwind dreamer, baby

With my head high in the clouds, yeah



Owe, don't take me too lightly

I got the blues power, baby

I'm just a breed of society

I'm pushin' hard and stealin' free

Don't you try to lay no trip on me, yeah



I'm a wild hearted son

I'm comin' down like a rolling stone

Wild hearted son, yeah

I'm a wild hearted son

Hey mama, the world didn't want me to run

Wild hearted son



Owe, i was born to the city

But i longed to roam free

Got a screaming horse in my belly



Scar on my heart

I live outside of convention

You know the people who stare

I'm just a breed of society

I'm pushin' hard and I'm stealin' free

Don't try to lay no trip on me, whoa



Cause I'm a wild hearted son

I'm comin' down like a rolling stone, yeah

Wild hearted son

I'm a wild hearted son

Lil' honey, the world didn't want me to run, yeah

Wild hearted son



Baby, baby, yeah-yeah



Wild hearted son, yeah

The world didn't want me to run

Try to break me down, down...



I'm a wild hearted son

I'm comin' down like a rolling stone, yeah

Wild hearted son

I'm a wild hearted son

Lil' honey, the world didn't want me to run

Wild hearted son, son, baby, yeah
