All the old paintings 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 Nile They got the money on a bet Gold crocodiles (oh whey oh) They snap their teeth on your cigarette

Foreign types with the hookah pipes say (Whey oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh) Walk like an Egyptian

The blonde waitresses take their 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 in the marketplace say (Whey oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh) Walk like an Egyptian

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

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 the clubs, cruise down the block

All the Japanese 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 in the donut shop say (Whey oh whey oh, ay oh whey oh) Walk like an Egyptian Walk like an Egyptian
