Street Player (Dance Mix) Lyrics
[Verse 1: Peter Cetera]
I'll never forget those aimless years
Street sounds swirling through my mind
Trouble was often in the air
So we fought to forget our despair
[Chorus: Peter Cetera]
'Cause I'm a street player
And I'll play you a song
'Cause you know, my heart & soul
Will carry, carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Carry on
[Verse 2: Peter Cetera]
City life's the only way
Street corners and billiard halls
Was our home away
Lessons learned that still help me today
[Chorus: Peter Cetera]
I'm a street player
And I've seen it all
Hit men, thieves, and many a brawl
But as you see, I still stand tall
I'll never forget those aimless years
Street sounds swirling through my mind
Trouble was often in the air
So we fought to forget our despair
[Chorus: Peter Cetera]
'Cause I'm a street player
And I'll play you a song
'Cause you know, my heart & soul
Will carry, carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Carry on
[Verse 2: Peter Cetera]
City life's the only way
Street corners and billiard halls
Was our home away
Lessons learned that still help me today
[Chorus: Peter Cetera]
I'm a street player
And I've seen it all
Hit men, thieves, and many a brawl
But as you see, I still stand tall
[Refrain: Peter Cetera]
It was such a small space in time
I never knew that I would find
A musical path for all to see
Anxiety to ecstasy
[Hook]
I'm a street player
I'm a street player
I'm a street player
Woo ooh, I'm a street player
[Instrumental]
[Chorus: Peter Cetera]

It was such a small spacе in time
I never knew that I would find

I'm a street player
