Lyrics

[Verse 1] (It's the feeling of the time) (It's the feeling of the time) Baby don't have sorrow, looking in the streets your love is not so far He's a wilding guy In a sight light dollars, moving to the beat is not a jealous guy Like an eagle flies Money heat his mind, lovely is your time Burning back desire and his love is only fire You'll be back again, baby don't be afraid It's only thing for loving hand, which set you free Wild like a drum beat, baby, big in a dancing, get a check in the pocket (It's the feeling of the time) [Chorus] Wild like a gambler, you're a man full of danger, baby jump like a dancer (It's the feeling of the time) [Verse 2] Waiting for the moment, he'll be so baby, if you dress yourself Like a queen by night Don't be sad tomorrow, want to get away, because the wild boy is gone For the latest down Only simple smile, looking to the eyes Not a mad desire, but his love is only fire Want him back again, baby don't be afraid It's only thing for loving hand, to set you free Wild like a drum beat, baby, big in a dancing, get a check in the pocket (It's the feeling of the time) [Chorus] Wild like a gambler, you're a man full of danger, baby jump like a dancer (It's the feeling of the time) [Verse 3] Wild like a drum beat, baby, big in a dancing, get a check in the pocket (It's the feeling of the time) [Chorus] Wild like a gambler, you're a man full of danger, baby jump like a dancer (It's the feeling of the time) [Verse 4] (It's the feeling of the time) (It's the feeling of the time) Waiting for the moment, he'll be so baby, if you dress yourself Don't be sad tomorrow, want to get away, because the wild boy is gone Wild like a drum beat, baby, big in a dancing, get a check in the pocket (It's the feeling of the time) [Chorus] Wild like a gambler, you're a man full of danger, baby jump like a dancer (It's the feeling of the time) [Verse 5] Wild like a drum beat, baby, big in a dancing, get a check in the pocket (It's the feeling of the time) [Chorus] Wild like a gambler, you're a man full of danger, baby jump like a dancer (It's the feeling of the time)
