Childhood living Is easy to do The things you wanted I bought them for you Graceless lady You know who I am You know I can't let you Slide through my hands Wild horses Couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses Couldn't drag me away I watched you suffer A dull, aching pain Now you decided To show me the same No sweeping exits Or offstage lines Could make me feel bitter Or treat you unkind Wild horses Couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses Couldn't drag me away I know I dreamed you A sin and a lie I have my freedom But I don't have much time Faith has been broken Tears must be cried Let's do some living After we die Wild horses Couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses We'll ride them some day Wild horses Couldn't drag me away Wild, wild horses We'll ride them some day

“Wild Horses” foi gravada em apenas três dias, de 2 a 4 de dezembro de 1969, no Muscle Shoals Sound Studio, no Alabama.
Apesar de estar no álbum *Sticky Fingers* (1971), a primeira versão lançada da canção foi a dos Flying Burrito Brothers, no álbum *Burrito Deluxe* de abril de 1970, graças à intervenção de Gram Parsons.
O single lançado nos EUA em junho de 1971 alcançou a posição 28 na parada de singles, tornando‑se um dos sucessos mais tocados nos shows ao vivo dos Rolling Stones.
A versão dos The Sundays foi usada em um famoso comercial da Budweiser no início dos anos 1990, mostrando cavalos Clydesdale em câmera lenta.
A música aparece na trilha sonora do thriller *Fear* (1996) e no episódio “The Prom” da série *Buffy, a Caça‑Vampiros*.
Em 1996, a popularidade das inúmeras versões cover levou os Rolling Stones a relançar “Wild Horses” como single, reforçando seu status de clássico duradouro.
