Intro: C#F# x4
C#F#
Holly came from Miami, FLA,
C#F#
hitchhiked her way across the USA.
C#D#m
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
F#D#m
Shaved her legs and then he was a she. She says :
C#F#
Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side,
C#F#C#F#C#F#
said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.
C#F#
Candy came from out on the island,
C#F#
in the backroom she was everybodyʼs darling.
C#D#m
But she never lost her head,
F#D#m
even when she was giving head. She says:
C#F#
Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side,
C#F#
she said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side.
And the colored girls go
C#F#C#F#C#F#
Do do do... do do do...
C#F#
Little Joe never once gave it away,
C#F#
everybody had to pay and pay.
C#D#m
A hustle here and a hustle there,
F#D#m
New York City is the place where they said :
C#F#
Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side,
C#F#C#F#C#F#
I said, hey Joe, take a walk on the wild side.
C#F#
Sugar Plum Fairy came and hit the streets,
C#F#
looking for soul food and a place to eat.
C#D#m
Went to the Apollo,
F#D#m
you should have seen him go, go go, they said:
C#F#
Hey Sugar, take a walk on the wild side,
C#F#
I said, hey babe, take a walk on the wild side.
C#F#C#F#
All right! Ha!
C#F#
Jackie is just speeding away,
C#F#
thought she was James Dean for a day.
C#D#m
Then I guess she had to crash,
F#D#m
Valium would have helped that fast, she said:
C#F#
Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side,
C#F#
I said, hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.
And the colored girls say
C#F#C#F#C#F#
Do do do... do do do...
