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

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 superstar

The type of life that's 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 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 yeah oh

I play the street life

Because there's no place I can go

Street life

It's the only life I know

Street life

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 superstar

The type of life that's 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 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

Oh

Street life yeah street life

Street life oh street life

Yeah

Ohhh
