Shes been staring out the window four nights in a row
Like a caged up tiger, shes pacing the floor
And she just cant resist when she feels the pull
Shes got a restless spirit that she cant control
And when she gets like this, I gotta let her go

She hears the call of the wild every once in a while
She lets down her hair, shes gotta get somewhere
She can turn it loose and howl
I know whats in store, katie bar the door
When she winks at me and smiles
Shes in a foot stompin, honky-tonkin
Love making state of mind
So excuse me, yall, I gotta answer the call of the wild

If theres ever been a lady, well, baby is
Just more of a woman at times like this
Now, dont you worry about baby stepping out of line
Yeah, she drives me crazy, but it suits me fine
Shes hard to handle, so I hold on tight
And lord knows I got my hands full tonight

She hears the call of the wild every once in a while
She lets down her hair, shes gotta get somewhere
She can turn it loose and howl
I know whats in store, katie bar the door
When she winks at me and smiles
Shes in a foot stompin, honky-tonkin
Love making state of mind
So excuse me, yall, I gotta answer the call of the wild

I said pardon me, yall, I gotta answer the call of the wild
