Lyrics

Stepping out to angellucci's for my coffee beans
Checking out the movies and the magazines
Waitress she watches me crossing from the barocco bar
I get a pickup for my steel guitar
I saw you walking out shaftesbury avenue
Excuse me talking I wanna marry you
This is the seventh heaven street
Don't you seem so proud
You're just another angel in the crowd

And I'm
Walking in the wild west end
Walking in the wild west end
Walking with your wild best friend

And now my conductress on the number nineteen, she was a honey
Pink toenails and hands all, dirty with the money
Greasy easy greasy hair, easy smile
Made me feel nineteen for a while

And I went down to, cha, cha, uh, uh, 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 beat

Walking in the wild west end
Walking in the wild west end
Walking with your wild best friend

Now eh, a gogo, dancing girl, yes I saw her
The deejay, he say, here's mandy for ya
I feel alright, saying now, 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
Walking with'cha wild best friend

Walking it, walking it
