Mostly Wild
by Carol Burbank/Lynn Hollyfield 
Genre: Folk
Lyrics
Holding a baby, is holding beginnings
Children and time can only surprise
The first rule of parenting has to be patience
then add discipline, vacations and pie
Chorus:
Hairpin turns and long, slow changes
With this is girl child, more questions then answers.
When I was good, I was very good.
but mostly I was wild
The cinnamon thrush sings thank you, thank you
Parents are sunshine, sunshine and rain
A playful squirrel plots mischief, mischief
The seasons are turning again and again
Chorus:
Hairpin turns and long, slow changes
With this girl child, more questions then answers
When I was good, I was very good.
But mostly I was wild
We danced through the years as if it were easy
Two stepped through crisis, waltzed into strange
Family music, grace and mystery
as we dance, we are rearranged
Chorus:
And the gifts you’ve given, never failed
to find me in the clear.
My wayward ship has loving sails
because you brought me here.
My wayward ship has loving sails
because you brought me here.
