My wild love went ridin' 
She rode all the day 
She wrote to the devil 
And asked him to pay 
The devil was wiser 
It's time to repent 
He asked her to give back 
The money she spent 

My wild love went ridin' 
She rode to the sea 
She gathered together 
Some shells for her head 
She rode and she rode on 
She rode for a while 
Then stopped for an evenin' 
And lay her head down 

She rode on to Christmas 
She rode to the farm 
She rode to Japan 
And we entered a town 
By this time the river 
Had changed one degree 
She asked for the people 
To let her go free 

My wild love is crazy 
She screams like a bird 
She moans like a cat 
When she wants to be heard 
My wild love went ridin' 
She rode for an hour 
She rode and she rested 
And then she rode on 
Ride, c'mon
