Deuces are Wild is a song performed by American hard rock band Aerosmith. It was written by lead singer Steven Tyler and professional songwriter Jim Vallance. The song peaked at #1 on the Mainstream Rock Tracks chart in 1994. It was originally recorded to be part of the Pump album in 1989, but didn't make the cut. It first surfaced as a track on the album The Beavis and Butt-head Experience in late 1993. When it was included on Aerosmith's compilation for Geffen Records, Big Ones in 1994, it was released as an album cut and garnered much success on rock radio and thus topped the Mainstream Rock for four weeks that year. Surprisingly, "Deuces" actually preceded the release of the last single from 1993's Get a Grip, "Crazy". "Deuces" was also included on Aerosmith's career-spanning two-disc compilation O, Yeah! The Ultimate Aerosmith Hits in 2002.
