WALK LIKE AN EGYPTIAN

Bangles

 

[A] All the old paintings on the tombs

They do the sand [G] dance [A] don't you know

[A] If they move too quick (oh whey oh)

They're falling down [G] like a [A] domino

 

[A] All the bazaar men by the Nile,

They got the mo-[G]-ney [A] on a bet

[A] Gold crocodiles (oh whey oh),

They snap their teeth [G] on your [A] cigarette

 

[D] Foreign types with the hookah pipes say

Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh

[A] Walk like an Egyptian

 

[A] The blonde waitresses take their trays,

They spin around [G] and they [A] cross the floor

[A] They've got the moves (oh whey oh),

You drop your drink [G] then they [A] bring you more

 

[A] All the school kids so sick of books,

They like the punk [G] and the [A] metal band

[A] When the buzzer rings (oh whey oh),

They're walking like [G] an E-[A]-gyptian

 

[D] All the kids in the marketplace say

Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh

[A] Walk like an Egyptian

 

[A] Slide your feet up the street bend your back,

Shift your arm then you [G] pull it [A] back

[A] Life is hard you know (oh whey oh),

So strike a pose [G] on a [A] Cadillac

 

[A] If you want to find all the cops,

They're hanging out [G] in the [A] donut shop

[A] They sing and dance (oh whey oh),

Spin the clubs cruise [G] down the [A] block

 

[A] All the Japanese with their yen,

The party boys [G] call the [A] Kremlin

[A] And the Chinese know (oh whey oh),

They walk the line [G] like E-[A]-gyptian

 

[D] All the cops in the doughnut shop say

Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh

[A] Walk like an Egyptian - Walk like an Egyptian

 

[Dm]
