Call of the Wild Songtext
von Chris LeDoux

Storm clouds are building above the timber line
The lightning′s flashing across the mountain side
The thunder's rollin′ down the canyons of his mind
Somewhere beyond the great divide

The bugle of the bull elk echos through pines
The north wind moans her lonesome lullaby
He hungers for the freedom of an eagle as she glides
Somewhere beyond the great divide


He's heard the call of the wild
He's heard the call of the wild
The mountains callin′ to him like a mother calls her child
He′s heard the call of the wild

Livin' in the city, oh, it gets to be a grind
Puttin′ in his hours workin' overtime
Waitin′ for the day he can leave it all behind
To go somewhere beyond the great divide

He's got to get away from the city for a while
He′s gotta answer the call of the wild

He's heard the call of the wild
He's heard the call of the wild
The mountains callin′ to him like a mother calls her child
He′s heard the call of the wild


He's heard the call of the wild
He′s heard the call of the wild
