Walk On the Wild Side
Holly came from Miami, FLA
Hitchhiked 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 backroom, 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"
She says, "Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side"
And the colored girls go
Doo do-doo do-doo do-do-doo doo do-doo do-doo
Do-do-doo, doo do-doo do-doo do-do-doo doo do-doo do-doo
Do-do-doo
Little Joe never once gave it away
Everybody had to pay and pay
A hussle here and a hussle 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 'em 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"
Alright, ah
Jackie is just speeding away
Thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash
Valium would have helped that bash
And she said, "Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side"
Said, "Hey, honey, take a walk on the wild side"
And the colored girls say
Doo do-doo do-doo do-do-doo doo do-doo do-doo
Do-do-doo, doo do-doo do-doo do-do-doo doo do-doo do-doo
Do-do-doo
Hitchhiked 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 backroom, 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"
She says, "Hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side"
And the colored girls go
Doo do-doo do-doo do-do-doo doo do-doo do-doo
Do-do-doo, doo do-doo do-doo do-do-doo doo do-doo do-doo
Do-do-doo

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