Streets Of New York Lyrics

In the streets of new york

Dope fiends are leaning for morphine

The
tv screen followed the homicide scenes

You live here, you're taking a
chance

So look and i take one glance, there's a man inside an
ambulance

Crowds are getting louder, i wonder how the

People want
to go fight for the white powder

People hanging in spots

They
waited until the blocks got hot

And got raided by the cops

I'll
explain the man sleeping in the rain

His whole life remains inside a
bottle of night train

Another man got his clothes in a sack

Cause
he spent every dime of his rent playing blackjack

And there's the poor
little sister

She has a little baby daughter

Named sonya and sonya
has pneumonia

So why's her mother in a club unzipped though?

Yo
that's her job, sonya's mommy is a bar stripper

Drug dealers drive around
looking hard

Knowing they're sending their brothers and sisters to the
graveyard

Every day is a main event, some old lady limps

The
pushers and pimps eat shrimps

It gets tiring, the sight of a gun
firing

They must desire for the sound of a siren

A bag lady dies in
an alleyway

She's seen the last of her days inside the subways

More
and more down the slope, the kid couldn't cope

So he stole somebody's
dope and a gold rope

Now my son's on the run, he's a wanted one

Had
fun then was done by a shotgun

Upstairs i cover my ears and tears

The man downstairs must have drank too many beers

Cause every day of
his life he beats his wife

Till one night she decides to pull a butcher
knife







Blind man plays the sax

A tune called
the arms on my moms show railroad tracks?many lives are cut short

That's
when you're living

In the streets of new yor
