Her daddy bent the silver spoon
He was selling things he didn’t own
He was flying for TWA
I was in a ten(10) room shack
Wanting nothing more than to black singing I
Just want to celebrate
(Celebrate)
She was spinning “eat a peach”
Avoiding weekends at the beach
Hanging on the boys with windowpane
I was working at the tasty freeze
Just trying on my new disease
I was all messed up in the New York rain

We were living on wild life
There’s some long wild nights
But you know the strong will survive
To keep love alive
When you’re living on wild life

She was staying east of vine
Pretending everything was fine
Long before we all drank bottled water
I had myself a big black car
A big black dog and an angry scar
She was everything the doctor ordered

We were living on wild life
There’s some long wild nights
But you know the strong will survive
To keep love alive
When you’re living on wild life

Now she’s making half a buck
There are bodies in LA aqueduct
No more cigarettes but she’s still smoking
I’ve become the oceans slave
Waiting for that perfect wave
And to this day her heart remains unbroken

Still we were living on wild life
(Wild life)
There’s some long wild nights
(Wild nights)
To keep love alive
(Wild life)
When you’re living on wild life
(Wild life)

We were living on wild life
There’s some long wild nights
But you know the strong will survive
To keep love alive
(to keep love alive)
When you’re living on wild life

Wild life se gone
