One side of me is warm and quiet,
the other side runs hot and cold
Part of me is plain defiant,
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
when I don't rightly play a part
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
Heading out for parts unknown
That's the only way you're
when you don't rightly play a part
And it ain't easy being wild
You and me make a righteous couple
You on fire and me unbound
You're someone I'd like to have around
I'm thinkin' I must be high
Talk about settlin' down,
I'm wild at heart, ready for a rodeo
Headin' out for parts unknown,
that's the only way I'm goin'
when I don't rightly play a part
It ain't easy being wild at heart
