Baby woke up nervous |
|
She was sweating from the steam |
|
Kicked off the covers |
|
Fever burning bright |
|
Paranoia night |
|
Five alarm alert repeats |
|
This city never beats you |
|
But it buries you so deep |
|
'Cause there ain't no love on the the street |
|
Baby's breathing deeply |
|
She's listening to her heart beat |
|
Walks to the kitchen |
|
Dishes in the sink |
|
Baby doen't think it matters |
|
Maybe read a magazine |
|
And the colored girls go |
|
Whoop-de-doop-de-doop-de-doop- |
|
Doop-de-doop-de-doop |
|
'Cause there ain't no love |
|
Ain't no love in the street |
|
'Cause there ain't no love on the street |
|
Baby needs a frame of reference |
|
Some other place to go to |
|
All night launderettes |
|
Light a cigarette |
|
Jump an usherette |
|
Babe's an all night diner |
|
And she's got a trucker's appetite |
|
And ther ain't no love |
|
Ain't no love on the street |
