Call of the Wild

Well, nobody ever asked her
They just assumed that she would always turn out
Like they wanted her to be
But there was something missing
From that little schoolgirl look
One day she learned a lesson and threw away the book

And she heard it, the call of the wild
And she heard it, the call, the call of the wild
She was such a good girl 'till she heard the call of the wild
Calling her away
Calling her away
Calling her away

They gave her silk and laces, but she wasn't tranquilized
And with all the social graces, she was paralyzed
Well, they laughed away her future with all the best-laid plans
But they would never suit her and one day she ran

And she heard it, the call of the wild
And she heard it, the call, the call of the wild
She was such a good girl 'till she heard the call of the wild
Calling her away
Calling her away
Calling her away
Calling her away

She was such a gentle creature, so delicate and shy
She would only look at you from the corner of her eye

Then she heard it, the call of the wild
Then she heard it, the call, the call of the wild
She was such a good girl 'till she heard the call of the wild
Calling her away
Calling her away
Then she heard it, the call of the wild
She was such a good girl 'till she heard the call of the wild

Don't you tame her, don't blame her
For the call of the wild is calling you away
Calling you away
Calling you away, away
It's calling you away, away
It's calling you away, away
It's calling you away
It's calling you away
It's calling you away
It's calling you away
Calling, calling, calling me and you away
It's calling you away
It's calling you away
