Walk On the Wild Side

Holly came from Miami, F-L-A

Hitch-hiked her way across the USA

Plucked her eyebrows on the way

Shaved her legs, and then he was a she

She says, "Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side"

Said, "Hey, honey, take a walk on the wild side"

Candy came from out on the Island

In the back room she was everybody's darling

But she never lost her head

Even when she was giving head

She says, "Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side"

Said, "Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side"

And the colored girls go

Do-do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do, do

Little Joe never once gave it away

Everybody had to pay and pay

A hustle here, and a hustle there

New York City's the place where

They said, "Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side"

I said, "Hey, Joe, take a walk on the wild side"

Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets

Looking for soul food and a place to eat

Went to the Apollo

You should've seen him go, go, go

They said, "Hey, sugar, take a walk on the wild side"

I said, "Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side"

All right

Huh

Jackie is just speeding away

Thought she was James Dean for a day

Then I guess she had to crash

Valium would've helped that bash

She said, "Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side"

I said, "Hey, honey, take a walk on the wild side"

And the colored girls say

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do

Do, do-do, do-do, do, do-do, do
