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 time
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
