A rose grows wild in the country A tree grows tall as the sky The wind blows wild in the country And part of the wild, wild country, am I Wild, wild, like the deer and the dove Wild and free is this land that I love
A dream grows wild in the country A love grows tall as the sky A heart beats wild in the country And here with a dream in my heart Part of the wild, wild country, am I Part of the wild, wild country, am I
Written by Hugo Peretti, Luigi Creatore, and George Weiss.
