Just a mile outside of town All along the floodline The hills roll out like centuries Pass by without a sound Oh country down Where I found my proving ground Wheels are turning around Down river bound Where the lemon tea sky fell down

What'll I do, what will I say when you're gone? In this emptiness emotion Will it hurt when you walk out the door? Fall asleep like drowning in the ocean I don't wanna go crazy And still the world keeps turning Turn around and walk away And the hours are

Still wait for love to come Turning all around I'm a soldier of love But I'm still alive Every day and night All the days of my life In the wild wild west, Trying my hardest Doing my best

I don't wanna be eighty-five, singing "Whoa, no, I think I missed it, I was chasing money" Caught it so easy like the common cold, ooh, ooh Tossing and tossing and turning around Trying and trying to sweat it all out Kicking the habit that's pulling me

Still wait for love to come Turning all around I'm a soldier of love But I'm still alive Every day and night All the days of my life In the wild wild west, Trying my hardest Doing my best
