Street Fighter (Reprise)

Street fighting man
He's a hard one, yes, indeed
Just got in from Houston
Who knows when he'll leave

Made his reputation
Small town southern bars
Everyone respects him
Treats him like a star

Street fighter, street fighting man
Street fighter, street fighting man

You got to watch yourself today
While you're on the run
Cover the tracks that you lay down
Your day is gonna come, yes, it is

He's got a lady waiting
Back home in New Orleans
A Louisiana sweetheart
They call the Southern Queen

Promised her they'd settle down
And make a home someday
When he said, "Baby, you've got to wait awhile
I've got one last debt to pay"

Street fighter, street fighting man
Street fighter, street fighting man

You got to watch yourself today
While you're on the run
Cover the tracks that you lay down
Your day is gonna come

Met his man at Steeler's Inn
Where they play cards for pay
In a flash, two shots were fired
And one man rode away

The crowd began to circle him
As he lay there dying
And in the night, he thought he heard
His sweetheart lady crying

Street fighter, street fighting man
Street fighter, street fighting man

You got to watch yourself today
While you're on the run
Cover the tracks that you lay down
Your day is gonna come
