Tiffany

He stands on the street
With a jar at his feet
And his arms streched toward the sky

God's word in his grip
There's a song on his lips
I will not be denied

Winos walking past
See the change in his glass
And the Devil takes control

They commit their sin
For a half pint of gin
To help fight off the cold

They're laugh found joke (?)
Talked is old tattered cold (?)
Sayin preacher pray for me

Satan made us his slaves
Can three whores be saved
Will Jesus set us free

He prays father please forgive them
For they know not what they do
If there's no room in heaven
For these forgotton few

Lord, give this beggers mansion
To these lost wondering souls
And when I get to heaven
I'll sleep on the streets of gold...

He lays down his head on the missions last bed
As they turn out the front porch light
There's a knock at the door
Is there room for one more?
I'm sorry not tonight

But he gives up his place
For the sidewalk on 8th
Where the angels take his soul

To a mansion so fair
Built for many to share
There by those streets of gold

He prays father please forgive them
For they know not what they do
If there's no more room in heaven
For these forgotten few...

Lord, give this beggers mansion
To these lost wondering souls...
And when I get to heaven
I'll sleep on the streets of gold

I'll sleep on the streets of gold...
I'll sleep on the streets of gold...

Tiffany Renee Darwish (born October 2, 1971), simply known by her mononym Tiffany, is an American singer, songwriter, actress, and former teen icon. She is most notable for her 1987 cover of “I Think We’re Alone Now,” a song originally recorded by Tommy James and the Shondells in 1967. Released as the second single from her eponymous album, Tiffany, the song quickly became a teen anthem. Thanks to an original mall tour, "The Beautiful You: Celebrating The Good Life Shopping Mall Tour ‘87”, Tiffany found commercial success; both the single and the album peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard 200 charts, respectively. The singles “Could’ve Been” and “I Saw Him Standing There”, a cover version of The Beatles’ “I Saw Her Standing There”, followed soon after, with the former also claiming the No. 1 position on the Hot 100.

Tiffany was born in 1971 to James Robert Darwish and Janie Wilson, who divorced when she was very young. She grew up in Norwalk, California.

Tiffany began singing around 1975 when she was four years old and learned the words to the song “Delta Dawn”. After the divorce, she resided with her father, but in her adolescence, she rebelled against his strict Baptist parenting. While attending Leffingwell Christian High School, a group of friends and she behaved in a manner which contravened school regulations; she acknowledged this on Celebrity Ghost Stories in 2012.
