It Gets In Your Blood
In the Blood: Embracing the Wild Spirit
Lyrics
You've made up your mind
You've made a decision.
To make me walk the line
To enforce control or discipline on me.
Still you better not push too hard
But be cautious not to exert excessive pressure.
You'll only make it worse
Pushing too hard will worsen the situation.
I've got no excuses child
I don't have justifications, I understand it's been difficult for you.
I know it's been a trial for you
This situation has been a challenge for you.
But it's hard to turn around
It's difficult to change direction once a path is set.
Once you've set your course
Once a decision is made, it's hard to reverse.
The call of the wild
My nature has always been drawn to wild or adventurous behavior.
Has always been my style
This wild behavior is part of who I am.
and after all this time
Even after a significant period of time.
It gets in your blood
Wild behavior becomes ingrained in one's nature.
It's gets in your blood
It becomes deeply rooted within you.
Running around cutting up
Engaging in activities with abandon.
You just can't get enough
There's an insatiable desire for these activities.
Once it gets in your blood
Once it becomes part of you, you can't escape it.
I'm just a moon bit fool
I'm a person completely immersed in my wild nature.
I'm crazy through and through
I'm inherently and entirely unconventional.
You won't be the first to try
Others have attempted to change me before.
And make me change my way
But they've been unsuccessful in altering my ways.
When the night comes down
During the night, I prefer lively and noisy places.
I like the loud side of town
I'm attracted to the bustling areas of town.
The preacher says that old dark angel
A metaphorical reference to temptation or negative influence.
Has got me in his sway Ha!
The allure of something forbidden has its hold on me.
The call of the wild has always been my style
My inclination towards wild behavior remains constant.
and after all this time
Even after a prolonged period.
It gets in your blood
This wild nature becomes deeply ingrained.
running around cutting up
Continuously engaging in wild behavior.
you just can't get enough
There's an insatiable desire for these activities.
once it gets in your blood
Once it becomes part of you, you can't escape it.
Like Mr. Hyde I always backslide
A reference to reverting to undesirable behavior, like Dr. Jekyll turning into Mr. Hyde.
It gets in your blood
Wild behavior becomes deeply ingrained within.
It gets in your blood
It becomes deeply rooted within you.
Running around cutting up
Engaging in activities with abandon.
you just can't get enough
There's an insatiable desire for these activities.
once it gets in your blood
Once it becomes part of you, you can't escape it.
You just cant chain it up
It's impossible to control once it's ingrained within you.
once it gets in your blood
Once it becomes part of you, you can't escape it.
