Holly came from Miami, FLA  
C                              F  
Hitchhiked her way across the USA  
C                    Dm  
Plucked her eyebrows on the way  
F                        Dm  
Shaved her legs and then he was a she  
  
	 C                             F  
She says Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side  
C                                   F  
Said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side  
  
C F  
  
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  
Said hey, babe, take a walk on the wild side  
And the colored girls go  
  
C F  
Do do-do...   
  
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 say Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side  
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  
All right... huh  
  
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 fast  
  
She said Hey babe, take a walk on the wild side  
I said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side  
And the colored girls say  
  
C F  
Do do-do...
