Holly came from miami, fla
Hitch-hiked 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"
She said, "hey, honey
Take a walk on the wild side"

Candy came from out on the island
In the backroom, she was everybody's darlin'
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 doo do doo do doo...
