This sunny ballad was originally recorded by songwriter Jim Vallance in 1988 during the sessions for Pump with Steven Tyler adding his vocals, but it was nixed by Geffen A&R representative John Kalodner who didn’t like the title “Deuces are Wild.”

[Verse 1]
I love to look into your big brown eyes
They talk to me and seem to hypnotize
They say the things nobody dares to say
And I'm not about to let you fly away
My lover with no jet lag
We're staying up all night in my sleeping bag
You got a heart-beatin' rhythm from the subterranean
I really love you little girl
I don't need to explain
[Chorus]
I love you 'cause your deuces are wild, girl
Like a double shot of lovin' so fine
I've been lovin' you since you was a child, girl
'Cause you and me is two of a kind
[Verse 2]
Ah, like deja vu I feel like I've been here
Or somewhere else but you've been always near
It's you that's in my dreams I'm beggin' for
But I woke up when someone slammed the door
So hard I fell out of bed
Screamin' mama's little baby loves shortnin' bread
And the moral of the story I can testify
I get stoned on you girl
That's the best reason why
[Chorus]
I love you 'cause your deuces are wild, girl
Like a double shot of lovin' so fine
I've been lovin' you since you was a child, girl
'Cause you and me is two of a kind

Songwriter Jim Vallance shared:
When the time came to select songs for Aerosmith’s Pump album, “Deuces Are Wild” was a contender. Everyone loved the song … everyone except Geffen A&R man John Kalodner! … In mid-1989, myself and Steven Tyler (in one camp) and John Kalodner (in the other camp) lo...
