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
2 a.m. 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
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
