Streets Of Shame
(专辑: Twin Barrels Burning - 1982)
I
was a
long way from home, on the
streets of shame, Where the
women in cages play any kind of game. That's when I
saw her, and I
looked into her eyes I
don't speak the
language, but I
sure see the
merchandise. Oh, what could I
say? I
was hot for you. When you walk that way, what's a
man supposed to do? Tell me where I
draw the
line, let me have it one more time. She was a
sight, she had a
ring right through her nose. A
feeling came over me from my head right down to my toes. Must have been the
voodoo, or that trickery, Like something in a
movie by Rico Fellini. Oh, what could I
say? I
was hot for you. When you walk that way, what's a
man supposed to do? Tell me where I
draw the
line, let me have it one more time. Black halter, walk the
streets of shame. [x4] Well, I
think she knew by now that I
was no saint. Is this the
holy cow, waiting 'till I
retain? Left her angel line-up I
was begging her for more. Standing on the
concrete, I'm going to break down the
door. Oh, what could I
do? I
was hot for you. When you walk that way, what's a
man supposed to do? Tell me where I
draw the
line, let me have it one more time. Black halter, walk the
streets of shame. [repeat and fade]
