Real Wild Child / The Wild One - Johnny O

Real Wild Child / The Wild One

Johnny O'keefe

(O'Keefe - Greenham - Owens, Brunswick 55067, 1958)

Well, I'm a-just out of school
Like I'm real real cool
Gotta shake, gotta jive
Got the message that I gotta be alive
I'm a wild one, oh yeah, I'm a wild one
Ooh baby, gonna break loose
I'm gonna keep a-movin' wild
Gonna keep a-shakin' baby
I'm a real wild child

I meet all the guys
I'm gonna meet all the chicks
Shuffle and a-shake till I get a-my kicks
I'm a wild one, oh yeah, I'm a wild one
Ooh baby, gonna break loose
I'm gonna keep a-movin' wild
Gonna keep a-shakin' baby
I'm a real wild child

Get me a chick that's a-holdin' my own
Shake it till the meat comes out of the bone
I'm a wild one, oh yeah, I'm a wild one
Ooh baby, gonna break loose
I'm gonna keep a-movin' wild
Gonna keep a-shakin' baby
I'm a real wild child
(Let's go gals!)

Well, I'm a-just out of school
Like I'm real real cool
Gotta shake, gotta jive
Got the message that I gotta be alive
I'm a wild one, oh yeah, I'm a wild one
Ooh baby, gonna break loose
I'm gonna keep a-movin' wild
Gonna keep a-shakin' baby
I'm a real wild child

Get me a chick that's a-holdin' my own
Shake it till the meat comes out of the bone
I'm a wild one, oh yeah, I'm a wild one
Ooh baby, gonna break loose
I'm gonna keep a-movin' wild
I'm gonna keep a-shakin' baby
I'm a real wild child

Love me honey, I'm a real wild child
Squeeze a-me baby, I'm a real wild child
Come on over darling, I'm a real wild child
Come and get me, I'm a real wild child
Well, I'm a wild one, oh yeah, I'm a wild one
Ooh baby, gonna break loose
I'm gonna keep a-movin' wild
I'm gonna keep a-shakin' baby
I'm a real wild child
