A-well I just quit school an' I'm'a real, real cool
I'm gotta quit, I'm gotta jive
I got the message bamalalalala, wild one
Well, I'm a wild one
I gotta keep it shakin' baby, gotta keep it rockin' baby
Don't cha cramp my style; I'm a real wild child
C'mon baby, shake it all night long
Shakin' to the knees, a ball, c'mon
Well, I'm a wild one – yeah!
Well, I'm a wild one
Well, gotta keep it rockin' baby, gotta keep it shakin' baby
Don't cha cramp my style, I'm a real wild child – Go!
(Piano Solo (studio), Guitar solo (live)
Yeah, I'll do the blues till my knees ache
I wanna shake it but I don't wanna be late
C'mon, baby shake it all night long
Whole lotta shakin' baby goin' on
‘Cause I'm a wild one - Well, I'm a wild one
You gotta keep it shakin' baby, gotta keep the number movin'
Don't cha cramp my style; I'm a real wild child – Go!
(Guitar Solo) (Vocal ad lib)
Well, your knees are shakin' but you're slowin' us down
‘Cause when I feel it I really get riled
C'mon baby, let's do the hop
‘Cause when I get a-shakin' you know I can't stop
‘Cause I'm a wild one - Well, I'm a wild one
Hoo, gotta keep it shakin' baby, gotta keep it movin' baby
Don't cha cramp my style; I'm a real wild guy
Don't get on my nerves, I'm a real wild child
Well, I'm a real wild guy, I'm a real wild child, whoa child
Wild child
