The streets are wet
|
The lights have yet
|
To shed their darkened luster on the scene
|
|
My skirt's too short
|
My tights are run
|
These new heels are killing me
|
|
A second pack of cigarettes
|
It's a slow night, but there's time yet
|
Here comes the john from his other life
|
He may be driving to his wife
|
But he slowed down, take a look
|
I've learned to read them just like books
|
It's already half past ten
|
But they'll be back again
|
|
Head lights in a rainy street
|
I checked, made sure it's not the heat
|
I wink, I smile, I wave my hand
|
He stops, he seems to understand
|
A small transaction we must meet
|
I tell him that my heart will break
|
If he's not a generous man
|
I step into his van
|
|
They say the first's the hardest trick
|
But after that it's just a matter of logic
|
They have the money I have the time
|
Being pretty's my only crime
|
Ask what future do I see
|
I say it's really up to me
|
I don't need forgiving
|
I'm just making a living
|
|
Don't judge me
|
You could be me in another life
|
In another set of circumstances
|
|
Don't judge me
|
One more night
|
I'll just have to take my chances
|
For tomorrow we'll see
|
|
A friend of mine, he wound up dead
|
His dress is stained with color red
|
The next of kin, no fixed abode
|
Another victim on this road
|
The police just carted him away
|
But someone took his place next day
|
He's home by Thanksgiving
|
But not with the living
|
|
Don't judge me
|
You could be me in another life
|
In another set of circumstances
|
|
Don't judge me
|
One more night
|
I'll just have to take my chances
|
|
I know it's just not in my plan
|
For someone to care who I am
|
|
I walk in the streets for money
|
It's the business of love, hey honey, come on!
|
Don't leave me lonely, don't leave me sad
|
I'll be the sweetest five minutes you'll ever have
|
|
Don't judge me
|
You could be me in another life
|
In another set of circumstances
|
|
Don't judge me
|
One more night
|
I'll just have to take my chances
|
And tomorrow we'll see
|
