Call of the Wild Lyrics by Angela Bofill

The Best Of Angela Bofill

1983

[Verse 1]
Well, 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 schoolgirl look
One day she learned a lesson
And threw away the book
[Chorus]
And she heard it, the call of the wild
And she heard it, the call, the call of the wild
She was such a good girl
'Till she heard the call of the wild
Calling her away
Calling her away
Calling her away
[Verse 2]
They gave her silk and laces
But she wasn't tranquilized
And with all the social graces
She was paralyzed
Well, they laughed away her future
With all the best-laid plans
But they would never suit her
And one day she ran
[Chorus]
And she heard it, the call of the wild
And she heard it, the call, the call of the wild
She was such a good girl
'Till she heard the call of the wild
Calling her away
Calling her away
Calling her away
Calling her away
[Bridge]
She was such a gentle creature
So delicate and shy
She would only look at you
From the corner of her eye
[Chorus]
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
'Till she heard the call of the wild
Calling her away
Calling her away
Then she heard it, the call of the wild
She was such a good girl
'Till she heard the call of the wild
[Outro]
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, away
It's calling you away, away
It's calling you away, away
It's calling you away
It's calling you away
It's calling you away
It's calling you away
Calling, calling, calling me and you away
It's calling you away
It's calling you away
