Melanie's rhapsodic interpretation of the Stones' classic, performed live here to the delight of the crowd at her second concert in Central Park, New York, in August 1974. Lyrics:

WILD HORSES
Written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richard
Adapted by Melanie Safka

Childhood living, it isn't hard to do
All the things you wanted
I bought them for you
Graceless lady, you know I am
You know that I won't let you
Slip right through my hand

Wild, wild, wild, wild horses
Couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild, wild, wild horses,
We're gonna ride them someday
We're gonna ride them someday

You know I dreamed you
A sin and a lie
I have got my freedom
But I don't have much time
Faith has been broken
Some tears must be cried
We're gonna have to do some living
After we die

Wild, wild, wild, wild horses
Couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild, wild, wild horses
We're gonna ride them someday
We're gonna ride them someday
We're gonna ride them someday
(repeat)
