I was ramblin' down the open road When it came out of the blueTwo fates stretched out before my eyes Where the road had split in twoA life of certainty appealed to me But I was bound by a different codeOh, oh, ohSo I gathered up my hopes and dreams And I headed down Wilderness RoadOn Wilderness RoadI threw shadows to the windChased after a starStoppin' at nothin'Wherever they mayI let the chips fallOn Wilderness RoadI left my life to chanceOnly now I seeIt wasn't chance at allWell, she came alongLike the blush of dawnAll pink and dreamy eyesOh, oh, ohAnd then an angel whispered danger, dangerBut your love won't be deniedAnd now at times when my heart grows heavyAnd she's there to lighten my loadOh, oh, ohOh, oh, ohOh, oh, ohOh, oh, oh, ohWow, oh, oh, ohSo I could never forgetSo glad that ITraveled on Wilderness RoadOn Wilderness RoadOn Wilderness RoadI threw shadows to the windChased after a starStoppin' at nothin'I left my life to chanceOnly now I seeIt wasn't chance at allIt wasn't chance at all
