Possibly. I’m thinking of a live clip where Viv ends up making a bunch of heavily echoed gasps. Not sure if it was a version of Don’t Get Me Wrong though.

You're thinking of "Canyons Of Your Mind".

If it was, it could easily be some regional hit that was popular in Baltimore when Waters was a teenager.

You could look up something like John Waters Playlist on Spotify and find it.
Don't fake the funk on a nasty dunk!

Definitely not a national chart hit. A) I'd be familiar with it and b) it's too damn weird.

Thanks for the Spotify tip!
