Original Song Title:

"Walk On The Wild Side"

Original Performer:

Lou Reed

  
Parody Song Title:

"(Sox Fans Take A) Walk On The North Side"

Parody Written by:

Tim Hall

Harry Caray came up to Chicago
Comiskey Park was where he had his show

Comiskey was not much to see
Cub Fan Bud Man was what he would be
He said, Sox fans take a walk on the North Side
White Sox fans take a walk on the North Side

Irish Catholic boys born in Bridgeport
Thought that the Cub fans were an effeminate sort

But these people fail to see
Comiskey Park has no ivy
I say, Sox fans take a walk on the North Side
White Sox fans take a walk on the North Side
and the Bleacher Bums go

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(Doo)

At Comiskey Park the fans have to pray
Public housing across the highway

Wrigleyville has places to eat
Many hot bars and it cannot be beat
I say, Sox fans take a walk on the North Side
White Sox fans take a walk on the North Side

The Sox and the Cubs once made a trade
The Cubs knew that George Bell would start to fade

The Sox made a mistake
Gave away Sosa for Christ's Sake
They said, White Sox fans, take a walk on the North Side
I said, Sox fans, take a walk on the North Side
all right, huh

Big Frank is just wasting away
Playing with the White Sox every day

This is why he doesn't care
Pennant hopes are very rare
I say, Sox fans take a walk on the North Side
White Sox fans take a walk on the North Side
and the Bleacher Bums go

Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(Doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
(Doo)

Love baseball... I'll have to write something for the Red Sox. Thanks for the inspiration.

Good job Tim. 5 stars. I have just added a new Shania Twain parody to the Shania Twain section that I think you would enjoy. There is even a link to a sample of the original song. Any comments or votes would be graciously appreciated. This is a parody of "Whose Bed Has Your Boots Been Under?" and although it says written by "Twain/Lange", it was ofcourse written by me.

Not funny at all. At this rate, we Cub fans will no longer be able to convince everyone that we're not obsessed with the Sox.

The White Sox won the World Series last fall... now which side is better?

Don't know how I missed this one first time around. Ozzie Guillen wouldn't like it, but I bet my man Sweet Lou Piniella would!
