Street Life lyrics

I still hang around

Neither lost, nor found

I 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 parts (cards) to play

Street life, until you play your life away

You let the people see

Just who you want to be

And every night you shine

Just like a superstar

That's how the life is played

A ten cent 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, or 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

Hmm, oh, 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 parts (cards) to play

Street life, until you play your life away

Oh!

Street life, street life, street life, oh street life...

Hmm, oh, 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 parts (cards) to play

Street life, until you play your life away

You let the people see

Just who you want to be

And every night you shine

Just like a superstar

That's how the life is played

A ten cent 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, or 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...

Street life, I play the street life, street life, yeah, oh street life...

Hmm, ooh, oh, yeah, oh...
