Aerosmith - Walk This Way
backstroke lover always hidin neath the covers
till I talked to your daddy, he say
he said "you ain t seen nothin till you re down on a muffin
then you re sure to be a-changin your ways"
I met a cheerleader, was a real young bleeder
oh, the times I could reminisce
cause the best things of lovin with her sister and her cousin
only started with a little kiss
like this!
seesaw swingin with the boys in the school
and your feet flyin up in the air
singin "hey diddle diddle"
with your kitty in the middle of the swing
like you didn t care
so I took a big chance at the high school dance
with a missy who was ready to play
wasn t me she was foolin
cause she knew what she was doin
and I knowed love was here to stay
when she told me to
walk this way [8x]
just gimme a kiss
like this!
schoolgirl sweetie with a classy kinda sassy
little skirt s climbin way up the knee
there was three young ladies in the school gym locker
when I noticed they was lookin at me
I was a high school loser, never made it with a lady
till the boys told me somethin I missed
then my next door neighbor with a daughter had a favor
so I gave her just a little kiss
like this!
[repeat second verse, substitute this at the end]
when she told me how to walk this way, she told me to
walk this way [8x]
just gimme a kiss
like this!
"Walk This Way" is a song by American hard rock group Aerosmith. It was written by Steven Tyler and Joe Perry. It was originally released as the second single from their 1975 album Toys in the Attic. It peaked at #10 on the Billboard Hot 100 in early 1977, part of a string of successful hit singles for the band in the 1970s. In addition to being one of the songs that helped break Aerosmith into the mainstream in the 1970s, it also helped resurrect their career and revolutionized rock and roll and hip hop music when it was re-made in 1986 with rappers Run-D.M.C. on their album Raising Hell. It became an international hit and won both groups a Soul Train Music Award for Best Rap - Single in 1987. The song was covered by UK girl groups Sugababes and Girls Aloud as the official Comic Relief single in 2007.
