STREET LIFE

Randy Crawford & the Crusaders



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 way I know

Street life

And there's a thousand cards to play

Until you play your life away

You dress and walk and 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

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 t 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
