Jack Wild
Spoon
[Verse 1]
I was reminded every measure
Riding trade winds, buried treasure
I got on fine with modern living
But must I be such a citizen?
[Chorus]
And the world, still so wild, called to me
I was lost, I'd been kept on my knees
[Verse 2]
Trippers and askers, they surrounded me
All them describing how they'd like me
All them wanting somethin' special
Bring 'em roses, sing them blues
[Chorus]
And the world, still so wild, called to me
I'd been caught, I was lost, on my knees
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 3]
I looked full over all the lies and
Appealing to me, advertising
And I was living tight every night, uh
[Chorus]
And the world, still so wild, called to me
I was lost, I'd been kept on my knees
And the world, still so wild, called to me
