Wildheart Whiskey

Met her by the bar with her coat half tied

Rain on her boots and a laugh that swung wide She said,

You look lost, come keep me some pace Then she stole my

stool with a grin on her face

Out through the door where the old band played She spun down

the lane like a small parade

I meant to be calm,

meant to act like a man But I followed that smile like

a fool with a plan

Hey, my wild one,

wait for me Hey,

my wild one, wait for me Round the room and down the

street You make trouble feel so sweet

Hey, my wild one,

wait for me Hey,

my wild one, wait for me If you're running,

let it be

I'll be right where you will lead

She knew every name from the dock to the square

Bought a round for the room like a queen without care Said,

Dance if you're able,

don't talk it to death So I leapt with my heart and

I lost half my breath

We were racing the moon past the butcher and bridge She was

daring the night from the lane to the ridge

And she kissed me once quick like a match to a spark

Left a tune in my chest and a shine in the dark

She said, Love is a road and we're taking it fast Don't

blink now, boy, let the good moment last So I held that

grin like a glass raised high

And I swore I'd go with her wherever,

why not, why

Hey, my wild one,

wait for me Hey,

my wild one, wait for me

Round the room and down the street You make trouble feel so

sweet Hey, my wild one,

sing with me Hey,

my wild one, sing with me

If you're running, let it be I'll be right where you will

lead

Hey, my wild one,

wait

for me Oh,

my wild one

Stay by me

Oh, my wild one What a night to

see
