Little Wild One (no 5) Lyrics

(M. Crenshaw) 

    

   Waiting on the runway, rain falling down 

I always crawl by, can't get above the ground, 

I looked out at the window at the black clouds in the sky 

So lonesome I could die 

Well, we were on the lookout for adventure and fun 

Then we told each other it was over and done 

But here I go doing something I can't explain 

I'm running to see her again 

I want to talk to my little wild one 

and I want to rock with my little wild one 

All my life is a hollow display 

When I'm away from my little wild one 

She moves, she's a little wild one 

Right down to her shoes, she's a little wild one 

And I've been living in my own little hell 

Since I fell for my little wild one 

Waiting on the runway, in the new morning sun 

I shouldn't have told her we both ought to move on 

I shouldn't have told her because you know it does not pay 

to let a good thing slip away 

Aw, should I dial the number, or turn and walk away? 

Makes no difference, I'm a fool any old way 

But I know in my heart everything will be right 

When I hold her tonight 

I wanna carry on with my little wild one 

Make love till dawn with my little wild one 

She's mine 'till the last day runs down 

And I'm a clown for my little wild one 

She moves, she's a little wild one 

Right down to her shoes, she's a little wild one 

I'd swim an ocean and crawl though hell 

To do well by my little wild one 

Hey now little wild one, say why don't you 

take anything you, anything you want from me 

Hey now baby, don't you know I've been missing you 

Yes we were on the lookout for adventure and fun 

I shouldn't have told her it was over and done 

But I know in my heart everything will be right 

When I hold her tonight 

Well, I'm gonna talk to my little wild one 

And I'm gonna rock with my little wild one 

All my life is a hollow display 

When I'm away from my little wild one 

I wanna carry on with my little wild one 

Make love 'till dawn with my little wild one 

And I've been living in my own little hell 

Since I fell for my little wild one
