Joey comes from a sacred part of town
F#m7add11
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
A D E
Oh yeah, making love in the backseats, and oooohh

We were wild, wild in the streets
D Bm
Wild, wild in the streets
[Verse 2]

A member of the boy's brigade had a date with the girl next door
F#m7add11
You know it made her daddy crazy, it only made her want him more
Asus2
They weren't looking for trouble that boy didn't want a fight, not tonight
F#m7add11
So she headed out thru her bathroom window, what her daddy didn't know was gonna be alright
[Pre-chorus]
A D A D
They said oh yeah we're cruising to the backbeat
