Street Life

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

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 tempting masquerade

You dress, you walk, you 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

Mm, 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, there's a thousand cards to play

Street life, until you play your life away, oh

Street life, street life

Street life, oh, street life

Mm, yeah, yeah

Street life, street life

Street life, oh, street life

Mm, 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, there's a thousand cards to play

Street life, until you play your life away

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 tempting masquerade

You dress, you walk, you 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

Yeah, mm
