Jones
You whipped me, I'm hurting
Abused me for certain
And slavery should not exist
Is this what I get? A poison kiss?
Without you, I'm dead meat
I'm a raggedy dog dying in the streets
Of a God-forsaken shanty town
Where gangs of children are hunted down
And I go wild when you're in my face
I go wild when I taste your taste
I go wild, I go insane
I get sick, somebody stop this pain
Ah
You left me, I'm brain dead
I'm feeling nothing strapped to my bed
On life support, tubes in my nose
Tubes in my arms shot full of holes
And I go wild when you're in my face
I go wild when I taste your taste
I go wild and act like a goat
And I get sick, lumps in my throat
I go wild
I go wild I go crazy, I go insane
I get sick, somebody stop this pain
Yeah
And the doctor says, You'll be okay And if you'd only stay away From femmes fatales and dirty bitches And daylight drabs and nighttime witches
And working girls and blue stockings And dance hall babes and body poppers And waitresses with broken noses, checkout girls striking poses Politicians' garish wives with alcoholic cunts like knives
I go wild
I go wild
I go wild
I go wild (I go wild) When you're in my face (I go wild) I'm entranced, in a state of grace (I go wild) When you treat me bad (I go wild) Raving mad
I go wild for you
I go wild for you
(I go wild) (I go wild) Hey
And I go wild
I go wild for you
TrackTalk
I Go Wild is pretty much all Mick's
(composition).
Our input there is musical.

Keith Richards, June 1994
I Go Wild, I suppose, is the one I
play (guitar) on most. I mean, I just created it on guitar with
Charlie,
as a groove. And we more or less had the whole song down before we took
it to anyone else.
-
Mick Jagger, June 1994
On I Go Wild I'm playing this red Kramer
that really did sound amazingly chunky and funky, and it gave me a
really
nasty vibe to write the song. The sound will help you, and the
instrument
and the tuning and so on.

Mick Jagger, 1994
Waitresses with broken noses - that's
Ronnie Wood's specialty. He knew every waitress in Dublin, and so I
thought
I'd put that line in for him. I like that song. I really got into the
lyrics
on that one. One of the wordy ones.
