When 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 school girl look
One day she learned a lesson
And threw away the book
And 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
She heard the call of the wild
Calling her away
Calling her away
Calling her away
They gave silk and laces
But she wasn't tranquilized
And with all the social graces
She was paralyzed
Well, they laughed away the future
With all the best-laid plans
But they were never suit her
And one day she ran
And 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
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
She heard the call of the wild
Calling her away
Calling her away
Calling her away
And she heard it
The call of the wild
She was such a good girl
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
Calling you away
Calling you away
Calling you away
