I still hang around Neither lost nor found Hear the lonely sound Of music in the night Nights are always bright That's all that's left for me, yeah
I play the street life because there's no place I can go Street life, it's the only life I know Street life and there's a thousand cards to play Street life, until you play your life away
Street life, you can run away from time Street life, for a nickel, for a dime Street life, but you better not get old Street life, or you're gonna feel the cold
You let the people see Just who you wanna be And every night you shine Just like a superstar The type of life that's played A temptin' masquerade You dress and walk and talk You're who you think you are
Street life Street life Street life Oh, street life
I play the street life because there's no place I can go Street life, it's the only life I know Street life and there's a thousand cards to play Street life, until you play your life away
There's always love for sale A grown up fairy tale Prince charming always smiles Behind a silver spoon And if you keep it young Your song is always sung Your love will pay your way Beneath the silver moon
You let the people see Just who you wanna be And every night you sang Just like a superstar The type of life that's played A temptin' masquerade You dress and walk and talk You're who you think you are
Street life, you can run away from time Street life, for a nickel, for a dime Street life, but you better not get old Street life, or you're gonna feel the cold
There's always love for sale A grown up fairy tale Prince charming always smiles Behind a silver spoon And if you keep it young Your song is always sung Your love will pay your way Beneath the silver moon
Street life Street life Street life Oh, street life Oh, street life Yeah, street life Street life Oh, street life
