| Walking with your | wild best friend |
| Now my conductress on the number nineteen, she was a honey (she was a honey) |
| pink toenails and hands all dirty with the money |
| greasy greasy greasy hair, easy smile |
| made me feel nineteen, for awhile |
| and I went down to Chinatown |
| in the backroom it's a man's world, all the money go down |
| Duck inside the doorway, duck to eat |
| just ain't no way, you and me, we can't beat |
| And I'm walking in the wild west end - Walking in the wild west end |
| Walking with your wild best friend |
| Now the gogo dancing girl, yes I saw her |
| the deejay, he say, "Here's Mandy for Ya" |
| I feel all right to have seen her do that stuff |
| She's dancing high, I move on by, the close-ups can get rough |
| when you're walking in the wild west end - walking in the wild west end |
| 3x | Am | G | F | D | C | D | |
| Walking with your wild best friend |
