Joey comes from a sacred part of town
|
Where sometimes you talk so tough
|
That your feet don't touch the ground
|
And the sidewalk soldiers sing the midnite blues
|
While the old men recite their story lines
|
About when I was young like you
|
They say: Oh yeah
|
We were cruising to the backbeat
|
Oh yeah, Making love in the backseats
|
We were 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 daddy crazy
|
But it only made her want him more
|
They weren't looking for trouble
|
You know that boy didn't want a fight - not tonight
|
So she headed out thru her bathroom window
|
What her daddy didn't know was gonna be alright
|
They said: Oh yeah
|
We were cruising to the backbeat
|
Oh yeah, Making love in the backseats
|
We were wild, wild in the streets
|
Wild, wild in the streets
|
Wild, wild in the streets
|
Wild, wild in the streets
|
|
Sometimes this town ain't pretty
|
But you know it ain't so bad
|
Just like a girl who looks so happy
|
Whe inside she's so so sad
|
In here we got this code of honor
|
Nobody's going down
|
You don't walk in vain
|
Trough the kid's parade
|
'Cause this is my hometown
|
