Johnny was a kid from a rich neighborhood With a future planned from the start He didn't care for the promises they made He was young, wild and free With a hunger for some extra love He tried to make it on the street He was taking each guest down To feel the heat One day, from the wild side That's the place he wanna be One day, from the wild side No turning back now he's free He gave some glory for a job well done But he forgot his home and friends No matter how thin this guy's hair He wants to break every rule It was love in the first name It wasn't no shame One day, from the wild side That's the place he wanna be One day, from the wild side No turning back now he's free Just like a miracle he's in the show As you can see Under the smoking lights he's singing Can't believe this is me One day, one day You know that we'll be wild and free One day, one day Little darling, you and me One day, from the wild side That's the place we're gonna be One day, on the wild side No turning back now we're free One day, on the wild side That's the place we're gonna be One day, on the wild side Wild and free Gonna be wild and free Wild and free *
