Wild In the Streets

Joey comes from a sacred part of town Where sometimes you talk so tough your feet don't touch the ground And the sidewalk soldiers sing the midnight blues While the old men recite their story lines 'bout when I was young like you They say (oh yeah), we were cruising to the back beat (Oh, yeah) Making love in the backseat And, ooh, we were wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets A member of the boys brigade had a date with the girl next door You know it made her daddy crazy, it only made her want him more But they weren't looking for trouble, that boy didn't want a fight (not tonight) So she headed out through her bathroom window What her daddy didn't know was gonna be alright They say (oh yeah), we're cruising to the back beat (Oh, yeah) Making love in the backseat And, ooh, we were wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets We were wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets, rock me Sometimes this town ain't pretty, but you know it ain't so bad Just like a girl who looks so happy when inside she's so, so sad In here we got this code of honor, no one's going down You don't walk in vain trough the kids parade 'cause this is my hometown Wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets We were wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets Yeah, we were wild in the streets, wild in the streets Wild in the streets, wild in the streets Wild in the streets, yeah, we were wild in the streets Oh-oh-oh, wild in the streets Oh-oh-oh, wild in the streets Wild
