through the chill of winter
running across a frozen lake
hunters are out on his trail
all odds are against him
with a family to provide for
the one thing he must keep alive
will the wolf survive
driftin’ by the roadside
lines etched on an aging face
wants to make some honest pay
losing to the range war
he’s got two strong legs to guide him
two strong arms keep him alive
will the wolf survive
standing in the pouring rain
all alone in a world that’s changed
running scared now forced to hide
in a land where he once stood with pride
but he’ll find his way by the morning light
sounds across the nation
coming from your hearts and minds
battered drums and old s
singing songs of passion
it’s the truth that they all look for
something they must keep alive
will the wolf survive
will the wolf survive
