Lyrics
Run-D.M.C.:
Now there's a backseat lover
That's always under cover
And I talked til my daddy say
""said ya ain't seen nothin till your down on a muffin,
and theres sure to be a change in ways""
Now there's a cheerleader
That's a real big pleaser
As far as I could reminisce
And the best thing lovin'
Was your sister and your cousin
And it started with a little kiss, like this
She starts swingin'
With the boys in school
And her feet was flyin' up in the air
Singing hey diddle diddle with a kitty in the middle
I was swingin' like I just don't care
So I took a big chance at the high school dance
With a lady who was ready to play
It wasn't me she was foolin'
Cause she knew what was she was doin'
When she told me how to walk this way
She told me to..
Run-D.M.C. and Aerosmith:
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
She told me to
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
Well just gimme a kiss
Oooh, a-like this!
Run-D.M.C.:
School girl sleezy with a classy kinda sassy
Little skirt hangin' way up her knee
There were three young ladies in a school gym locker
And I find there were lookin' at D
I was a high school loser never made it with a lady
Till the boys told me somethin' I miss
Then my next door neighbor
Had a daughter, had a favour
And I gave the girl a little kiss, like this
Aerosmith:
She starts swingin with the boys in the school
With her feet flyin up in the air
Singing hey diddle diddle with a kitty in the middle
I was swingin' like I didn't care
So I took a big chance at the high school dance
With a miss who was ready to play
Wasn't me she was foolin' cause she knew what she was doin'
When she told me how to walk this way
She told me to
Run-D.M.C. and Aerosmith:
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
She told me to
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
Walk this way!
Talk this way!
Well just gimme a kiss
Oooh, a-like this!

Queens rappers Run-DMC pioneered the use of rock guitar in hip-hop with the tracks "Rock Box" and "King of Rock." But this Aerosmith cover -- with help from Tyler and Perry -- was a crossover smash, establishing a blueprint for scores of metal-rap mash-ups. For Run, though, it was just another day rhyming. "I made that record because I used to rap over it when I was twelve," he told ROLLING STONE.
