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 superstar
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
