Lyrics
Holly came from Miami F.L.A
Hitchhiked her way across the U.S.A
She plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she
Yes, and she said
"Hey, babe, walk on the wild side
Hey, honey, take a walk on the wild side
Hey, baby, take a walk on the wild side
Hey, honey"
Little Joe never once gave it away
Everybody had to pay
A hustle here, a hustle there
That New York City is the place where
We say, "Hey, babe, c'mon walk on the wild side"
I say, "Hey, sugar, take a walk on the wild side"
Alright
Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets
Looking for soul food and a place to eat
Went down to the Apollo
Should have seen him go, go, go, go, go, go
"Hey, baby, walk on the wild side
Hey, sugar, I walk on the wild side
Take a walk on the wild side
Take a walk on the wild side"
Jackie is just speeding away
She thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash
Valium would have helped that bash
But she says, "Hey, baby, walk on the wild side"
I say, "Hey, babe, walk on the wild side
Hey, baby, take a walk on the wild side
Hey, baby"
Run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run
Run, run, run, run, run, run
Hitchhiked her way across the U.S.A
She plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she
Yes, and she said
"Hey, babe, walk on the wild side
Hey, honey, take a walk on the wild side
Hey, baby, take a walk on the wild side
Hey, honey"
Little Joe never once gave it away
Everybody had to pay
A hustle here, a hustle there
That New York City is the place where
We say, "Hey, babe, c'mon walk on the wild side"
I say, "Hey, sugar, take a walk on the wild side"
Alright
Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets
Looking for soul food and a place to eat
Went down to the Apollo
Should have seen him go, go, go, go, go, go
"Hey, baby, walk on the wild side
Hey, sugar, I walk on the wild side
Take a walk on the wild side
Take a walk on the wild side"
Jackie is just speeding away
She thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash
Valium would have helped that bash
But she says, "Hey, baby, walk on the wild side"
I say, "Hey, babe, walk on the wild side
Hey, baby, take a walk on the wild side
Hey, baby"
Run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run
Run, run, run, run, run, run
