Holly came from Miami, F-L-A
Hitchhiked 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"
I 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 giving head
She says, "Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side"
Little Joe never once gave it away
Everybody had to pay and pay
A hustle here and a hustle there
New York City is that place where
They say, "Hey Joe, take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey babe, 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've seen them go, go, go
I said, "Hey Sugar, take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side"
Jackie's just speeding away
Thought she was James Dean for a day
Dinner guests she had to crash
Valium would've helped that bash
I said, "Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey honey, take a walk on the wild side"
And the girl goes singin'
