Joey comes from a sacred part of town Where sometimes you talk so tough Your feet don't touch the ground And the sidewalk soldiers sing the midnight 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 back beat Oh yeah, making love in the backseat" "We were wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets" A member of the boys brigade Had a date with the girl next door You know it made her daddy crazy It only made her want him more They weren't looking for trouble That boy didn't want a fight not tonight So she headed out through her bathroom window What her daddy didn't know was gonna be alright They said, "Oh yeah, we were cruising to the back beat Oh yeah, making love in the backseats" "We were wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets We were wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets", rock me Sometimes this town ain't pretty But you know it ain't so bad Just like a girl who looks so happy When inside she's so so sad In here we got this code of honor No ones's going down You don't walk in vain trough the kids parade 'Cause this is my hometown Wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets We were wild, wild in the streets Wild, wild in the streets Yeah, we were wild in the streets Wild in the streets Wild in the streets Wild in the streets Wild in the streets Yeah, we were wild in the streets Wild in the streets Wild in the streets Wild
