Started with a guitar riff I'd had for ages, with the working title "The Rebel Song" until I settled on a concept, which is somewhat "Dead or Alive" in theme I guess. As usual, a work tape more than demo!
Any and all!
Thanks Leslie! This one was a lot of fun, where I just let some attitude hang out haha!

Hi Tommy, the verse melody reminded me at once to ‘House of the Rising Sun’, maybe you should try to change it a bit. I like the song idea! I think this should be a Rock song or at least heavy Country Rock.

In another life you'd find me in the badlands or the plains
A good horse and starry sky for company
A wild lawmaker, kind outlaw, depending where the cards fall
Wouldn't have much but I'd be living free
Chorus:
But it's now, not then
In this world we're livin' in
It's not easy to be
Wild at heart
Wild at heart
In yet another time I might be a rider on the waves
A good ship, a steady crew and the open sea
An explorerer or a looter, a merchant or freebooter
The winds alone would chart my destiny
Chorus:
But it's now, not then
In this world we're livin' in
It's not easy to be
Wild at heart
Wild at heart
In this life you'll find me still a highwayman of sorts
A good band, the open road, a four wheeled steed
Still always on the run, slingin' guitars insteada guns
I found a way to live just how I need
Chorus (ending version)
Oh it's now not then
In this world we're livin' in
There's still a way that you can find to be
Wild at heart
Wild at heart
