I'd never forget those nameless years
Street sounds whirling through my mind
Trouble was often in the air
So we thought to forget our despair
Cause I'm a street player
And I play you a song (Play me a song, play me a song)
Cause my heart and soul
Will carry, carry on
City life's the only way
Street corners and billiard halls
Was my home away
Lesson's learned that still help me today
Cause I'm a street player
And I've seen it all (play me a song, play me a song)
Hit men and thieves and many a brawl
But as you will see I still stand tall
It was such a small space and time
I would never knew that I would find
A musical past for all to see exciety to ecstasy
I am a streetplayer
I am a streetplayer
I am a streetplayer
Street sounds whirling through my mind
Trouble was often in the air
So we thought to forget our despair
Cause I'm a street player
And I play you a song (Play me a song, play me a song)
Cause my heart and soul
Will carry, carry on
City life's the only way
Street corners and billiard halls
Was my home away
Lesson's learned that still help me today
Cause I'm a street player
And I've seen it all (play me a song, play me a song)
Hit men and thieves and many a brawl
But as you will see I still stand tall
It was such a small space and time
I would never knew that I would find
A musical past for all to see exciety to ecstasy
I am a streetplayer
I am a streetplayer
I am a streetplayer
