My untamed heart can never be free
With the gals on my mind and the devil in me
Well, the lights are low I steal her kiss in the dark
So she'll heed the call of my untamed heart
The tinkle of the glasses the bartender's cry
Drink 'em up boys here's mud in your eyes
A pretty little gal takes me by the hand
We dance to the rhythm of a honky tonk band
My untamed heart can never be free
With the gals on my mind and the devil in me
Well, the lights are low I steal her kiss in the dark
So she'll heed the call of my untamed heart
My untamed heart can never be free
With the gals on my mind and the devil in me
Well, the lights are low I steal her kiss in the dark
So she'll heed the call of my untamed heart
Well, I told myself a million times
We're foolin' with the gals and drinkin' wine
The shadows fall it starts to get dark
My feet's got to follow my untamed heart
My untamed heart can never be free
With the gals on my mind and the devil in me
Well, the lights are low I steal her kiss in the dark
