((I play the/…) street life [Chorus]
(Because there's no place I can go/ Gm7 Gm7

You let those 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 [Intro] (x2)
You dress, you walk, you talk Gm7 Gm7
You're who you think you are Cm7 Cm7
Street life - You can run away from time [Chorus]
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 fairy tale ║ Street Life ║
Prince charming always smiles ║ The Crusaders ║
Behind a silver spoon ╚═══════════════╝
And if you keep it young
Your song is always sung [Verse]
Your love will pay your way (F#M7 C#7
Beneath the silver moon D#m7 C#7 x2)
