street walker

sightseer in the middle of the night

i'm looking for action

something real tight

but can you make it when we turn on the lights

of the city

street walker in the middle of the day

been up all night trying to earn your pay

mama told you when you ran away

it's not easy

there's no pity

in the city

i've been on this corner so long

but it's no one's guess who's the next blonde

but before you know it

it'll be gone

but i ain't complaining

don't get me wrong

it's not easy

in the city

street walker in the middle of your life

every day is like shooting dice

you carry yourself like you carry a knife

in the city

fast talker in the middle of the street

trying to hustle everyone that you meet

sooner or later everybody gets beat

it's not easy

there's no pity

in the city
