Another Great Cover I Love The Start:)


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 cards to play
Street life
Until you play your life away

You never people see
Just do you wanna be
And every night you shine
Just like a superstar
The type of life that's played
A temptin' masquerade
You dress you walk you talk
You're who you think you are


Street life
You can run away from time
Street life
For a nickel, for 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
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

Street life, street life, street life, oh street life
Hmm, Yeah, oh

I play the street life
Because there's no place I can go
Street life
It's the only life I know
Street life
There's a thousand cards to play
Street life
Until you play your life away
Oh !

Street life, street life, street life, oh street life...

  • Got to have some Joe Sample tooooo!

  • @TryTwoKeepUp - yes, it's Joe's song...but this is still a cover- meaning it's not the original version, but a remake. Artists often cover their own songs. It just means its a new version, thats all.

  • my god its so true

  • ESA ES UNA VERSION MUY LENTA DE LA CANCION, LA VERSION CON RANDY CRAFORD ES COMO MAS DINAMICA, DEMUESTRA VIDA, ESTA VERSION PARECE QUE LA CANTA UN MUERTO.  ES MI OPINION.

  • oh my God!

  • Correction...this isn't a cover. Street life is Joe's Samples song. Randy Crawford lended her voice to the vocal. Yes, Lalah singed is in her own way, but Joe is the originator.

  • 2Pac -Street Life OG

  • Lalah Killed it.

  • Slow tempo, This song is a classic

  • Donny was a musical master, I would have loved to hear them 2 together.
