Street Corner
Ashford And Simpson · Other Songs - Ashford And Simpson
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
