I play the streetlife, because there`s no place I can go
Streetlife – it`s the only life I know
Streetlife – and there`s a thousand parts to play
Streetlife – 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

Streetlife – you can run away from tide
Streetlife – for a nickel or a dime
Streetlife – but you better not get old
Streetlife – 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

Streetlife – Streetlife
Streetlife - Streetlife

I play the streetlife, because there`s no place I can go
Streetlife – it`s the only life I know
Streetlife – and there`s a thousand parts to play
Streetlife – until you play your life away - ooh

Streetlife - Streetlife
Streetlife - Streetlife
