10.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
