runnin' wild
My gal and I, we had a fight  And I'm all by myself I guess she thinks now that she's gone I'll lay right on the shelf I'm gonna show her she's all wrong No lonesome stuff for mine I won't sit home, all alone She'll soon find that I'm   Runnin' wild,  lost control Runnin' wild, mighty bold Feelin' gay, reckless too Care free mind all the time, never blue Always goin' don't know where Always showin', I don't care Don't love nobody, it's not worth while All alone, runnin' wild. Runnin' wild   When I first met that gal of mine It seemed just like a dream But when she tho't she had me right She started actin' mean Like mary led her little lamb  She led me all the time Until the worm had to turn That's the reason I'm   Runnin' wild,  lost control Runnin' wild, mighty bold Feelin' gay, reckless too Care free mind all the time, never blue Always goin' don't know where Always showin', I don't care Don't love nobody, it's not worth while All alone, runnin' wild. Runnin' wild   No gal will ever make a fool of me No gal! I mean just what I say I ain't the simpleton I used to be Wonder how I got that way   Once I was full of sentiment, it's true But now I got a cruel heart With all that other foolishness I'm through Gonna play the Villain part   Runnin' wild,  lost control Runnin' wild, mighty bold Feelin' gay, reckless too Care free mind all the time, never blue Always goin' don't know where Always showin', I don't care Don't love nobody, it's not worth while All alone, runnin' wild.
