The howlin’ Moon would cry I’d sleep the Sun away I was just a child I knew I was afraid There was nothin’ to gain I found By runnin’ the other way I had to stand my ground And keep the wolves at bay
Well I knew somehow There would come a day So I stood my ground Kept the wolves at bay
Would not take no more Had my fill Stars had faded from my eyes And run from looks that kill There was no one comin’ around To save me from the fray I had to stand my ground And keep the wolves at bay
But I knew somehow There would come a day When I stood my ground Kept the wolves at bay
Well I knew somehow There would come a day So I stood my ground Kept the wolves at bay
Years have gone by The callin’ carries on Scars above my eye Are tender to the bone And though I’ve settled down I hear the children say You have to stand your ground And keep the wolves at bay
Well I knew somehow There would come the day When I stood my ground Kept the wolves at bay
Well I knew somehow There would come the day So I stood my ground Kept the wolves at bay
