Pam Grier and Robert Forster in "Jackie Brown", driving to the mall. I cut out a little snippet in the middle (with Robert DeNiro and Bridget Fonda) because it is too short to make sense and has different music, anyway.

"Street Life"
Written by Will Jennings, Joe Sample
Performed by Randy Crawford

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 let the people see,
just who you wanna be
And every night you shine,
just like a super star
That`s how the life is played
a ten cent masquerade

cut

(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)

end cut

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!

  • probably the sexiest woman on earth.

  • Bella canzone..........mi fa venire voglia di bere uno spritz!

    (questa la capiscono solo gli italiani)

  • I would give anything to have Pam Griers WALK!

  • @jamesdutoit Except for the whole WalMart thing, I agree wholeheartedly. If we want artists to keep devoting all their time to making music and movies, we should have enough gratitude to make sure they're justly compensated.

  • This movie looks like it was made in the 70s, and I just love this song : ) Characters great, esp bad ass Samuel L Jackson. But De Niro gives me the creeps...urgh!

  • black don't crack

  • pam sei bellissima

  • 1:06 to 1:12 you can see the shadows of the camera crew behind Pam Grier. I just like looking for that shit. Lol seeing camera crews shadows or even reflections is funny. BTW This movie kicks-ass!!!

  • Im from Macedonia and nowadays on our greatest radio station this song is played 3 times at least in a day. great great song:)

  • Another Great classic RnB jam with the movie scenes to go with it!!
