Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Wolves don't live by the rules
Wolves don't live by the rules
Wolves don't live by the rules
Wolves don't live by the rules
[Verse 2]
Valleys to hills, you can hear them cry
They have to fight to stay alive
No one can change it
Mother Nature knows the reason why
[Verse 3]
Oh, wolves don't live by the rules
Oh, wolves don't live by the rules
[Verse 4]
They're born to kill
And to be free
Their life is hard
Which is meant to be
The cry of the wild
Is the only way they can see
[Verse 5]
Oh, wolves don't live by the rules
Oh, wolves don't live by the rules
Oh, wolves don't live by the rules
Oh, wolves don't live by the rules
