Holly  came  from  Miami  FLA
Hitch  hiked  her  way  across  the  USA
Plucked  her  eyebrows  on  the  way
Shaved  her  legs  and  then  he  was  a  she
She  said  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  said  hey  baby  take  a  walk  on  the  wild  side
She  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
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
Looking  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  alright
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
