The pomegranate (/ˈpɒmᵻɡrænᵻt/), botanical name Punica granatum, is a fruit-bearing deciduous shrub or small tree in the family Lythraceae that grows between 5 and 8 m (16 and 26 ft) tall.
In the Northern Hemisphere, the fruit is typically in season from September to February, and in the Southern Hemisphere from March to May. As intact arils or juice, pomegranates are used in cooking, baking, meal garnishes, juice blends, smoothies, and alcoholic beverages, such as cocktails and wine.
The pomegranate originated in the region of modern-day Iran and has been cultivated since ancient times throughout the Mediterranean region and northern India. It was introduced into America (Spanish America) in the late 16th century and California by Spanish settlers in 1769.
Today, it is widely cultivated throughout the Middle East and Caucasus region, north Africa and tropical Africa, the Indian subcontinent, Central Asia, the drier parts of southeast Asia, and parts of the Mediterranean Basin. It is also cultivated in parts of California and Arizona. In recent years, it has become more common in the commercial markets of Europe and the Western Hemisphere.
Give me my cycle with star-filled sky above
And a good lookin' woman with a heart full of love
I'll go to any honky in any old town cause I am the wild one and I'll never settle down
I am the wild one I am the wild one I am the wild one I'll never settle down
I got a gal in every town who claims she loves me so
I love 'em and leave 'em I want 'em all to know
That when I hear that wild wind a blowin' down the road
I know I'll have to travel fast and leave without a load
I am the wild one I am the wild one I am the wild one I'll never settle down
I am the wild I believe in travelin' light
Just me and my cycle speedin' through the night
I love a lotta women I take 'em all around I am the wild one I'll never settle down
