Reckless & Wild

I don't know if I was born this way
But something made me what I am today
When it's all done and said
What you see is what you get

I go to bed most nights
Close enough to hear the neighbors fight
So close to so many lives
So many miles away in my mind

It's fair to say I'm complicated
I fight the urge to be domesticated
I day dream about bein' all alone
Don't mind the glow of the city lights
But I'll take the stars every time
When it's all done and said
What you see is what you get
I am a southern child
Rough, reckless, and wild

It seems the older that I get
The easier it is to admit
That the blood runnin' through my veins
Needs wide open spaces and that's ok

It's fair to say I'm complicated
I fight the urge to be domesticated
I day dream about bein' all alone
Don't mind the glow of the city lights
But I'll take the stars every time
When it's all done and said
What you see is what you get
I am a southern child
Rough, reckless, and wild
Bridge
It's not about what's right or wrong

It's about what makes you whole, what makes you feel at home

It's fair to say I'm complicated
I fight the urge to be domesticated
I day dream about bein' all alone
Don't mind the glow of the city lights
But I'll take the stars every time
When it's all done and said
What you see is what you get
I am a southern child
Rough, reckless, and wild
I am a southern child
Rough, reckless, and wild
I am a southern child
Rough, reckless, and wii-ii-iild
I am a southern child
Rough, reckless, and wild, yeah!
