[Intro]

(8 bars)

[Verse 1]

All the old pa

intings on the

 tombs

They do the sand dance, don't you know

If they move too quick (oh whey oh)

They're falling down like a domino

All the bazaar

 men by the Ni

le

They got the money on a bet

Gold crocodiles (oh whey oh)

They snap their teeth on your cigarette

Foreign types 

with the hooka

h pipes say

Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh

[Chorus]

Walk like an E

gyptian

[Instrumental]

(8 bars)

[Verse 2]

The blonde wai

tresses take t

heir trays

They spin around and they cross the floor

They've got the moves (oh whey oh)

You drop your drink then they bring you more

All the school

 kids so sick 

of books

They like the punk and the metal band

When the buzzer rings (oh whey oh)

They're walking like an Egyptian

All the kids i

n the marketpl

ace say

Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh

[Chorus]

Walk like an E

gyptian

[Solo]
      
      
      
      
      
      


(Whistling)

N.C. (only drums)
Slide your feet up the street, bend your back

Shift your arm then you pull it back

Life is hard, you know (oh whey oh)

So strike a pose on a Cadillac

[Verse 3]

If you want to

 find all the 

cops

They're hanging out in the donut shop

They sing and dance (oh whey oh)

They spin their clubs, cruise down the block

All the Japane

se with their 

yen

The party boys call the Kremlin

And the Chinese know (oh whey oh)

They walk the line like Egyptian

All the cops i

n the donut sh

op say

Ay oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh

[Chorus]

Walk like an E

gyptian

Walk like an Egyptian

[Outro]
