Lyrics of Wild West End by Dire Straits

For my coffee beans
Checking out the movies and the magazines
Waitress she watches me
Crossing from the Barocco Bar
I get a pickup for my steel guitar

She's dancing high, I move on by
The close-ups can get rough, when you're

Walking in the wild west end

Walking with your wild best friend

outro

Walking, walking in the-
