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 super star
That's how your life
is played
a temptin' 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'd 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
If you're keeping young
the sun is always on
Your love will
pave the way
beneath the
silver moon
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
ho
Street life
Street life
Street life
Oh street life
