Walk on the Wild Side lyrics

Holly came from Miami F.L.A,

Hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A.

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 givin’ 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, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Little Joe never once gave it away,

Everybody had to pay and pay.

A hustle here and a hustle there,

New York City is 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 have 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 have helped that dash.

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,

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
