Wild As A Turkey Lyrics


Hayes Carll Wild As A Turkey


Well I'm wild as a turkey, higher than a Christmas moon
Empty as my wallet on a Sunday afternoon
I come around too fast, and I always leave too soon
Ain't that what they all say?

I come down from Memphis, with a broken down Corvette
A suitcase full of memories, and face you won't forget
You say you'll never love me, but the night ain't over
yet
I'm gonna change your mind

Girl I've been a gambler since the age of 21
I've seen my share of troubles and the wrong end of a
gun
This whole worlds out to get me just because I have my
fun
They ain't gonna slow me anyway

Right ain't right babe, and left ain't always wrong
I bet you're tired of dancing to the same old song
You look like an angel in a place you don't belong
I'm gonna take you away

Just because this place is closing that don't mean it's
time for bed
We don't need no sleep girl, we'll get plenty when
we're dead
Oh these fools behind you and come with me instead
I'm gonna show you a time

Well I'm wild as a turkey
Higher than a Christmas moon
Empty as my wallet on a Sunday afternoon
I come around too fast, and I always leave too soon
Ain't that what they all say?
Ain't that what they all say?
