Wolves Don’t Live By the Rules

Listen to this. It always makes me think of you when I hear this because of that band you were in so long ago, man does not become wolf. I have so many things I want to say and and nothing, all at the same time. I have nothing at all to say because everything I have said up until now has been meaningless. It's never exactly what I want it to be and how do I even know what it ought to be let alone what I want? I just wish I could play this song for you and have you be as enthusiastic about it as I am.

Wolves actually do live by very strict rules. But they're not the rules we put on them. And man never does become wolf. Quite right about that.

Fuck, I miss you. Now, listen to this.


Wolves Don’t Live By the Rules

Willie Thrasher 

[Chorus]
Wolves don't live by the rules
Wolves don't live by the rules

[Verse 1]
Down eastern hills you can hear them crying
They have to fight to stay alive
No one can change it
Mother nature knows the reason why

[Chorus]
Oh, wolves don't live by the rules
Wolves don't live by the rules

[Verse 2]
They're born to kill and to be free
Their lives are hard but they're meant to be
The cry of the wild and the unaware
They can't see

[Chorus]
Oh, wolves don't live by the rules
Wolves don't live by the rules



"Wolves Don’t Live By the Rules" by Willie Thrasher on Spirit Child album. 1 January 1981.
