One side of me is warm and quiet
The other side runs hot and cold
Part of me is playing to find
Loud and rowdy and hard to hold

Thought it was ‘cause I was just a man
Now I know it’s just the way I am

Wild at heart
Ready for a rodeo
Heading out for parts unknown
That’s the only way I’m going
Taking on a fight when I don’t rightly play a part
And it ain’t easy being wild at heart

One side of you is soft and pleasing
Other side that won’t be touched
Got a side that don’t come easy
Get too close, it might get rough

I could tell you were more than the usual girl
More than a pretty dress and fancy curls

Wild at heart
Get ready for a rodeo
Heading out for parts unknown
That’s the only way you’re going
Taking on a fight when you don’t rightly play a part
And it ain’t easy being wild at heart

You and me make a righteous couple
You on fire and me unbound
When it looks like there might be trouble
You’re someone I’d like to have around

Hey, what am I drinking? I’m thinking I must be high
Talk about settling down but I don’t know why

I’m wild at heart
Ready for a rodeo
Heading out for parts unknown
That’s the only way I’m going
Taking on a fight when I don’t rightly play a part
It ain’t easy being wild at heart
But it’s hard to keep from being wild at heart
