Lou Reed - Walk on the wild side

Holly came from Miami, Fla
Hitchhiked her way across the USA
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her leg and then he was 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 everybodys darling
But she never lost her head
Even when she was given head - she said

Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
Said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side
And the coloured girls go, doo dodoo

Little Joe never once gave it away
Ev'rybody had to pay and pay
A hustle here and a hustle there
New York city is no place where they said Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side
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 have seen him go go go - they said

Hey sugar, take a walk on the wild side
Said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side

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 - she said

Hey sugar, take a walk on the wild side
Said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side
And the coloured girls go, doo dodoo
