Legend of the Wild Horse Lyrics

Let me tell you 'bout the legend of the wild horse
She escaped from the racetrack, ran away and never came back
From the dark forest

For sanity I remember this
Now that I'm fenced in ba-dum ba-dum
Just like before, I swore
I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)

Yeah I've been punched up ba-dum ba-dum
Ten times or more, I swore
I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)

The legend of the wild horse
She got lost on a golf course
She got locked out of a life-force
Or sanity I remember this

Now that I'm fenced in ba-dum ba-dum
Just like before, I swore
I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)

Yeah I've been punched up ba-dum ba-dum
Ten times or more, I swore
I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)

Now that I'm fenced in ba-dum ba-dum
Just like before, I swore
I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)

Yeah I've been punched up ba-dum ba-dum
Ten times or more, I swore
I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)

Before you knew me
I'd dive from the roof
I'd swing from the trees and hang from the moon

Now that I'm fenced in ba-dum ba-dum
Just like before, I swore
I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)

Yeah I've been punched up ba-dum ba-dum
Ten times or more, I swore
I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)

Yeah I've been punched up ba-dum ba-dum
Ten times or more, I swore
I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)
I swore I'll be your warrior (warrior)

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
