Irene Wilde - Ian Hunter

Written by：Ian Hunter

When I was just sixteen

I stood waiting for a dream

At barker street bus station every night

When I tried to get it on

She just looked at me with scorn

My courage

Turned to dust and I took flight

For those looks they seemed to say

You ain't nuthin'

Go away

You're just a face in the crowd

So I went home and I vowed

I'm gonna be somebody

Someday

Her name was irene wilde

Oh such beauty for a child

When she started dating boys

I nearly died

For I could not barely stand seeing someone hold her hand

I felt I had to crawl away and hide

In my mother's living room I composed so many tunes

All the same

Just a frame

For her name

And just to say

Gonna be somebody

Someday

Wild as your name I soon left that country town

I been around

Seen some fame

Seen some ups and seen some downs

Smile through your shock when you hear your name aloud

It's that face in the crowd

Didn't dig it

Much too proud

When I was just sixteen I stood waiting for a dream

A barker street bus station non affair

At the time it seemed so sad

But it did not turn out bad

If you hadn't messed me up I'd still be there

And I think most folks agree

A little put

Down makes them see

They ain't no chain

Just a link and that's why you made me think

Gonna be somebody

Be somebody

Be somebody

Someday
