David "Hawk" Wolinski - Street Player lyrics

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 Cause I'm a street player And I've seen it all (play me a song, play me a song) But as you can 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 Cause I'm a street player And I've seen it all (Play me a song, play me a song) The people love your soul Don't let them down Play your guitar Play that funky music, child
