[Chorus]
Street boy
You've been out too long
Street boy
Ain't you got enough sense to go home?
Street boy
You're gonna end up alone
You need some love and understandin'
Not that dead-end life you're plannin'
Street boy

[Verse 1]
You go home, but you can't stay
Because somethin's always pullin' you away
Your fast hellos and quick goodbyes
You're just a street boy with the streetlights in your eyes

[Refrain]
You better get yourself together
Look for somethin' better

[Chorus]
Street boy
You've been out too long
Street boy
Ain't you got enough sense to go home?
Street boy
You're gonna end up alone
You need some love and understandin'
Not that dead-end life you're plannin'
Street boy
[Verse 2]
Your sister says that every week
You just come home to eat and go to sleep
And you make plans you never keep
Because your mind is always in the streets

[Refrain]
You better get yourself together
Look for something better

[Chorus]
Street boy
You've been out too long
Street boy
Ain't you got enough sense to go home?
Street boy
You're gonna end up alone
You need some love and understandin'
Not that dead-end life you're plannin'
Street boy

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
There's one last word, then I'll conclude
Before you pick up and put on your attitude
But you'll never find, or ever meet
Any street boy who's ever beat the streets
[Outro]
Street boy
Street boy
Street boy
Street boy
Street boy
Street boy
Sweet boy
