Detektive Riot - Contract On My Life lyrics

Cruisin' down Woodward

With my axe on my back

A bum hit me up for change,

And I stole it right back

I said, Man whatcha thinkin'?

I bet you drive a Lincoln.

And even though you got them dirty clothes,

It really got me thinkin'

I play a bum by day, but I'm a playa by night

And I'm keepin the streets clean,

In Detroit tonight.

Bright lights, long nights,

We all live in a big, big city

I've got a contract on my life

From a pushcart peddler

Girlies ask me for my name

Because they're lookin for a fella

I said, Baby how you doin?

You really got me movin'

And even though you got them slutty clothes,

You really got it goin on

In Detroit today,

And I'm playin tonight

And I'm keepin the streets clean,

In Detroit tonight.

Bright lights, long nights

We all live in a big, big city

And you ask me why,

You're never gonna die

And then I'll tell you that,

There's more to life that that

And you know that she is,

And you know that she was,

And she'll be that way forever, forever, forever...
