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 life I know
 Street life, and there's a thousand parts to play
 Street life, until you play your life away
 
 Street life, you can run away from time
 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
 
 You let the people see
 Just who you wanna be
 And every night you shine
 Just like a superstar
 That's how my life has played
 A ten cent masquerade
 You're dressed, you walk, you talk
 You're who you think you are
 
 I play the street life
 Because there's no place I can go
 Street life, it's the only life I know
 Street life, and there's a thousand parts to play
 Street life, until you play your life away
