Wild In The Streets

Joey comes from a sacred part of town Where sometimes you talk so tough Your feet don't touch the ground The sidewalk soldiers sing their midnight blues While the old men recite their storylines About 'when I was young like you' They say, oh yeah, we're cruising to the backbeat Oh yeah, making love in the backseats Cause we're wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets A member of the Boy's Brigade Had a date with the girl next door You know it made her dad crazy But it only made her want him more But they were looking for trouble And that boy didn't want to fight, not tonight So she headed out through the bathroom window What her daddy didn't know was gonna be alright They say, oh yeah, we're cruising to the backbeat Oh yeah, making love in the backseats Cause we're wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets You know this town ain't pretty But you know it ain't so bad Just like the girl who looks so happy When inside she's so, so sad Here we've got this code of honour No ones going down You don't walk in vain through the kids parade Cause this is my hometown And we were wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets Wild in the streets Wild in the streets Wild in the streets Wild in the streets Wild
