[Verse]
All up and down the boulevard
All the boys are looking hard
Trying to score, trying to make a pass
Anything at all, don't have to last

[Verse]
Angel, she's afraid now
She don't know about street guys
She don't know how to hurt you deep
Let her play for keeps

[Chorus]
Cut you like a knife, angel
When you survive
Cut you like a knife, angel
Street life

[Verse]
Blue hard hands and car trucks
Hustlers, lovers, come out the dark
They all know and it's a fact
Angel, you better stand back

[Verse]
Sun cools down, the street come to life
Here come the boys with all the drive
Any woman can do this
They don't really care

[Chorus]
Cut you like a knife, angel
When you survive
Cut you like a knife, angel
Street life

[Verse]
All up and down the boulevard
All the boys are looking hard
Trying to score, trying to make a pass
Anything at all

[Chorus]
Cut you like a knife, angel
When you survive
Cut you like a knife, angel
Street life
Cut you like a knife, angel
When you survive
Cut you like a knife, angel
Street life
