Story Behind The Song

Tales of a Wild Woman

Song Description

Narrator telling a story bout a crazy little lady

Lyrics

Verse:
I heard that little girl talks in riddles; they say she has some magic hands
She gonna put you in the middle, if you don't know where you stand
They say her Mama was a gypsy; her Daddy was a rattlesnake
You could hear her getting tipsy every night down by the lake

Chorus:
She's a wild, wild child; a spirit in the wind
A wild, wild child; she'll break your heart, but then again ...
Right when you least expect it, she gonna make you feel so fine
Show you the kinda loving that messes up your mind
She's a wild, wild child

Verse:
She has a way with woodland creatures; they seem to know what she's about
She's the envy of every preacher, the way she opens up a crowd
Should she catch you in her strong gaze, you might as well call it a day
Your heart won't be your own again; don't matter how hard you pray

Chorus:
She's a wild, wild child; a spirit in the wind
A wild, wild child; she'll break your heart, but then again ...
Right when you least expect it, she gonna make you feel so fine
Show you the kinda loving that messes up your mind
She's a wild, wild child

Bridge:
Ain't no chains to bind her; you can't hold her back
Her smile is a reminder, she don't cut no slack

Chorus:
She's a wild, wild child; a spirit in the wind
A wild, wild child; she'll break your heart, but then again ...
Right when you least expect it, she gonna make you feel so fine
Show you the kinda loving that messes up your mind
She's a wild, wild child (repeat)
