Runnin' Wild (04-26-37) - Django Reinhardt

My gal and I, we had a fight

And I’m all by myself

I guess she thinks now that she’s gone

I’ll lay right on the shelf

I’m gonna show her she’s all wrong

No lonesome stuff for mine

I won’t sit home, all alone

She’ll soon find that I’m

Runnin' wild, lost control

Runnin' wild, mighty bold

Feelin' gay, reckless too

Care free mind all the time, never blue

Always goin' don’t know where

Always showin', I don’t care

Don’t love nobody, it’s not worth while

All alone, runnin' wild.

Runnin' wild

When I first met that gal of mine

It seemed just like a dream

But when she tho’t she had me right

She started actin' mean

Like mary led her little lamb

She led me all the time

Until the worm had to turn

That’s the reason I’m

Runnin' wild, lost control

Runnin' wild, mighty bold

Feelin' gay, reckless too

Care free mind all the time, never blue

Always goin' don’t know where

Always showin', I don’t care

Don’t love nobody, it’s not worth while

All alone, runnin' wild.

Runnin' wild

No gal will ever make a fool of me

No gal!

I mean just what I say

I ain’t the simpleton I used to be

Wonder how I got that way

Once I was full of sentiment, it’s true

But now I got a cruel heart

With all that other foolishness I’m through

Gonna play the Villain part

Runnin' wild, lost control

Runnin' wild, mighty bold

Feelin' gay, reckless too

Care free mind all the time, never blue

Always goin' don’t know where

Always showin', I don’t care

Don’t love nobody, it’s not worth while

All alone, runnin' wild.
