Straight out of nowhere
And a little bit out of our minds
We were courting disaster
With one foot over the lineIt was one for the show
And two for ol' shorty and me
We were the wild ones
We had this town up a treeWe were the wild ones
The ones they couldn't control
We were survivors
Good hearts, body and soulWe were the winners
'Cause we didn't know we could fail
We were the wild ones
And we had the world by the tailShe was a lady
When a lady wasn't easy to be
Hangin' in limbo
She started hangin' with meWe were the music
'Cause we had a song we could sing
We were the wild ones
And we had the world on a stringWe were the wild ones
The ones they couldn't control
We were survivors
Good hearts, body and soulWe were the winners
'Cause we didn't know we could fail
We were the wild ones
And we had the world by the tailWe were the wild ones
And we had the world by the tail
