I play the streetlife, because there`s no place I can go Streetlife – it`s the only life I know Streetlife – and there`s a thousand parts to play Streetlife – until you play your life away
You let the people see, just who you wanna be And every night you shine, just like a super star That`s how the life is played a ten cent masquerade You dress, you walk, you talk You`re who you think you are
Streetlife – you can run away from tide Streetlife – for a nickel or a dime Streetlife – but you better not get old Streetlife – or you`re gonna feel the cold
There`s always love for sale a grown-up fairytale 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
Streetlife – Streetlife Streetlife - Streetlife
I play the streetlife, because there`s no place I can go Streetlife – it`s the only life I know Streetlife – and there`s a thousand parts to play Streetlife – until you play your life away - ooh
