Street Corner

Ashford And Simpson · Other Songs - Ashford And Simpson

Street life

Rough necks

Bad guys



On any street

Any street corner

On any street (Woo)

Any street corner (Oh...oh...oh...)



They try to pick me up and take me for a ride

I tell 'em, no, the girl is satisfied

They say, I've got the stuff that really turns you on

I tell 'em, no, this little girl is grown



They say, Fi Fi

And I say, no, no, not me

I'm not the kind of girl

You're gonna see



On any street (Woo)

Any street corner (Ah, you know it, girl)

On any street (Street)

Any street corner (Ooh, ooh, ooh)



They say, I've got a dime, I've got a nickel bag

Oh, it's the best stuff you've, you ever had

I've got your pleasure right here in my hand

It'll make you feel just, just like a real big man



But when I stop

To think about the cost

I know that I just

Might get lost



On any street (Ooh) (Oh, baby)

Any street corner (Oh, yeah oh, yeah)

On any street (Oh, yeah) (Sugar, sugar)

Any street corner (Oh) (Baby, oh, baby, oh)



Oh... (oh...)



On any street (Anywhere, anywhere) (Ooh...ooh...ooh...)

Any street corner (They'll find ya, they'll find ya)

On any street (On the avenue) (They'll be waitin')

Any street corner (They'll be waitin?)

(On the avenue waitin' for you)



You want it (You got it)

That's why (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

They'll be lookin', lookin', lookin' all around (Everywhere)

Oh, that's why, that's why

I've got to leave you, girl, yeah, yeah, yeah

But you won't find my love

You won't find it

On any street

Any street

Any corner of the world
