Wild in the Streets Lyrics - Bon Jovi

1 Joey comes from a sacred part of town

2 Where sometimes you talk so tough

3 That your feet don't touch the ground

4 And the sidewalk soldiers sing the midnight blues

5 While the old men recite their story lines

6 About when I was young like you

7 They say "Oh yeah "

8 We were cruising to the backbeat

9 Oh yeah, Making love in the backseats

10 We were wild, wild in the streets

11 A member of the boy's brigade

12 Had a date with the girl next door

13 You know it made her daddy crazy

14 But it only made her want him more

15 They weren't looking for trouble

16 You know that boy didn't want a fight - not tonight

17 So she headed out through her bathroom window

18 What her daddy didn't know was gonna be alright

19 They said "Oh yeah"

20 We were cruising to the backbeat

21 Oh yeah, making love in the backseats

22 We were wild, wild in the streets

23 Wild, wild in the streets

24 Wild, wild in the streets

25 Wild, wild in the streets

26 Sometimes this town ain't pretty

27 But you know it ain't so bad

28 Just like a girl who looks so happy

29 When inside she's so so sad

30 In here we got this code of honor

31 Nobody's going down

32 You don't walk in vain

33 Trough the kid's parade

34 'Cause this is my hometown
