Walk on the Wild Side (Live 1972 FM Broadcast)

Holly came from Miami, FLA
Hitch-hiked her way across the USA
Plucked her eyebrows along the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she

They said, "Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side"
Alright

Candy came from out on the Island
In the back room she was everybody's darling
But she never once lost her head
Even when she was giving head

She said, "Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey Candy, take a walk on the wild side"
And the colored 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"

Little Joe never once gave it away
Everybody had to pay and pay
A hustle here and a hustle there
New York City's the place where you said

"Hey Joe, take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey baby, 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 'em 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, huh

Jackie, she is just speeding away
She thought she was James Dean for a day
But then you know that she had to crash
Valium would have helped that bash

Said, "Hey Jackie, take a walk on the wild side"
I said, "Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side"
And the colored 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-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo
Doo, doo-doo, doo-doo, doo-doo"
