Wild Child

The sunlight hits the city As a hammer hits the glow The gypsy waves farewell to me As I hit the Poppy Road I'm a Wild Child I'm a Wild Child I'm standing on the hillside With two rainbows in my hair One is for the living love The other for the dead I'm a Wild Child I hear the sound of voices And a working day begins My souvenir is misfortune And a burning heart within I'm a Wild Child The echo of a guitar And the singers standing by They tell about her future But they never tell me why I'm a Wild Child The world is in my hands The sorrow in my name Since I heard you cry for me I've never been the same I'm a Wild Child I'm throwing down a coin Into the wishing well I hear it hits the water As a rambler hits the trail I'm a Wild Child So when you see me passing by Looking for some help Don't talk don't laugh don't criticize But care about yourself I'm a Wild Child
