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 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 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 fairytale
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 - Street life

I play the streetlife, 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 to play
Street life – until you play your life away - ooh

Street life - Street life
Street life - Street life
