Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
We were rebels with no chains to hold
Burning through summers, feeling bold
Every mile was a road untamed
Chasing sunsets, playing life's game
Didn't care about the path or plan
Just a beat-up Chevy and a full gas can
We ride till dawn with the windows down
Living like kings without a crown
When we were wild, running free
No one could catch us, not even destiny
We thought we'd never grow old, never slow down
We were fire in the wind, never touching the ground
When we were wild, black was ours to steal
Every moment felt so damn real
Now I look back and I miss that smile
Wish I could turn back to when we were wild
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Friday nights, no plans, no end
Just me and you and a couple of friends
We thought we'd conquer the world someday
But the years took us all in different ways
You got a family and I'm still here
But sometimes I grab me a cold beer
And think about those nights that never quit
Man, we were wild and we lived every bit
When we were wild, running free
No one could catch us, not even destiny
We thought we'd never grow old, never slow down
We were fire in the wind, never touching the ground
When we were wild, black was ours to steal
Every moment felt so damn real
Now I look back and I miss that smile
Wish I could turn back to when we were wild
The years go fast, but the memories stay
Like a one-hour math from a younger day
I still feel that rush, that rebel heart
Even though time's torn us apart
When we were wild, running free
No one could catch us, not even destiny
We thought we'd never grow old, never slow down
We were fire in the wind, never touching the ground
When we were wild, black was ours to steal
Every moment felt so damn real
Now I look back and I miss that smile
Wish I could turn back to when we were wild
Yeah, we were wild, free as the breeze
Now it's just a memory, blowing through the trees
