Street Life

Hey, let me show you the street life

Hey, let me show you the finks

The punks, the judge, the junkies

Stay close to me for a while

For a while, for a while

Say boy, you got to get street wise

Hey, little boy

You're a babe in arms

Stay out of harm's way

Wait right here with me for a while

For a while, for a while

Street life, hell in the city

You got to really watch out for that

Street life

Say, it ain't pretty

You got to know your way around

Or somehow you might get hurt

Get hurt, get hurt

Say, let me show you the night life

Say, let me show you the queens

The dudes, the class, the crudes

The folks that inhabit the night

Let me set it right

I'm gonna give you my warning

I'm gonna tell you the street's alive

The sound of jive

You've just arrived

Try it for size

For a while, for a while

Street life, hell in the city

You got to really watch out for that

Street life

Say, it ain't pretty

You got to know your way around

Or somehow you might get hurt

Get hurt, get hurt
