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
|
She said, Hey honey
|
Take a walk on the wild side
|
|
Candy came from out on the Island
|
In the backroom she was everybody's darlin'
|
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
|
doo do doo do doo do do doo
|
|
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
|
Lookin' 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
|
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 have helped that bash
|
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,
|
doo do doo do doo do do doo
|
