[Verse 1]
We were the wild children, 1945
When all the soldiers came marching home from war
Love looks in their eyes, in their eyes

[Verse 2]
Tennessee, Tennessee Williams
Let your inspiration flow
Let it be around when we hear the sound
Of the springtime rivers flow, rivers flow

[Verse 3]
Rod Steiger and Marlon Brando
Standing with their heads bowed on the side
Cryin' like a baby thinkin' 'bout the time
James Dean took that fatal ride, took that ride

[Refrain]
Da-da-da-da-da-da

[Verse 2]
Tennessee Williams
Let your inspiration flow
Let it be around to hear the sound
When the springtime, springtime rivers flow, rivers flow
[Verse 3]
And Steiger and Marlon Brando
With their heads bowed on the side
Cryin' like babies thinkin' 'bout the time
James Dean took that fatal ride, took that ride

[Verse 1]
And we were the wild children
19, 1945
When all the soldiers came marching home from war
With love looks, love looks in their eyes

[Refrain]
In their eyes, in their eyes
In their eyes
