Streets Of Shame by Wishbone Ash
Artist: Wishbone Ash
Album: Twin Barrels Burning
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. (repeat four times)
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)
