Wild One

(album: Take Me As I Am - 1993)

They said, "Change your clothes,"
She said, "No, I won't."
They said, "Comb your hair."
She said some kids don't
And her parents' dreams went up in smoke

They said, "You can't leave."
She said, "Yes, I will."
They said, "Don't see him."
She said, "His name is Bill."
She's on a roll and it's all uphill

She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said, "You can be anything you wanna be."
She's a wild one
Running free

She loves rock-and-roll
They said, "It's Satan's tongue."
She thinks they're too old
They think she's too young
And the battle lines are clearly drawn

She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said, "You can be anything you wanna be."
She's a wild one
Running free

She has future plans
And dreams at night
When they tell her life is hard
She says that's alright
Yeah

She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said, "You can be anything you wanna be."

She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said, "You can be anything you wanna be."
She's a wild one
Running free

She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said, "You can be anything you wanna be."

She's a wild one
With an angel's face
She's a woman-child
In a state of grace
When she was three years old on her daddy's knee
He said, "You can be anything you wanna be."
She's a wild one
Running free
