=======================

Holly came from Miami F.L.A.
hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A.

Plucked her eyebrows on the way
shaved her leg 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 given head
She says, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
and the coloured girls go

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, 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 coloured girls say

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
 doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
 doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
 doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
 (Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
 (doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
 (doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
 (doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
 (Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
 (doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
 (doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
 (doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
 (Doo)
