My wild love went ridin’,
She rode all the day,
She wrote to the devil
And asked him to pay.
The devil was wiser,
It's time to repent,
He asked her to give back
The money she spent.
My wild love went ridin’,
She rode to the sea,
She gathered together
Some shells for her hair.
She rode and she rode on,
She rode for a while,
Then stopped for an evening
And lay her head down.
She rode on to Christmas,
She rode to the farm,
She rode to Japan,
And we entered a town.
By this time the weather
Had changed one degree,
She asked for the people
To let her go free.
My wild love is crazy,
She screams like a bird,
She moans like a cat,
When she wants to be heard.
My wild love went ridin’,
She rode for an hour,
She rode and she rested,
And then she rode on.
Ride, c’mon!
