"Hello there"
"Hi, how ya doin?"
"Good. Saw you sittin' over there. I've been here for a
while, You come in here often?"
"Yeah, you can usually find me up in here, after I've had
a hard day's work"
"A hard day's work? What kind of business you in?"
"Well you might say I'm in the Social Services"
"Social Services?"
"That's right"
"Well I wondered if I could maybe buy you a drink?"
"Certainly, wait a minute. Sam?
Let me get his attention. Sam, er over here, would you
er"
"Sam yeah"
"Can bring me some champagne"
"Anything the lady wants Sam"
"I don't know what to say"
"Social Services huh? Listen I, I, tonight is or special
night for me, I'm celebrating"
"What are you celebrating?"
"My ninth wedding anniversary"
"Wait, Sam make that a Magnum honey"
"But my wife and I have been separated for
a year. She has control of our money, of cource and er
I get a certain allowance, and I've got an extra "25"
here, I thought that maybe I might take a little advantage
of that"
"You and I? In what way? How do you mean?"
"Well you know, as long as you're in the Social Service
business, I thought that we might be able to work up a
little Social Service here"
"But I didn't say welfare"
"Ha, ha you see but I have, my problem is that I..."
"Only have 25 dollars"

"Yeah"
"Listen darlin' I'm gonna have to..."
"Wait a munite here"
"... go on home. Ethel would you get my coat?
I got to get out a here"
"She a friend of yours er...?"
"No bring the whole coat Ethel, don't zip none off, Excuse
me"
"I was wondering if we could just maybe talk for 25. You
me and Ethel"
"Well wait a munite, tel's see if we can hit this hawk
a little bit. It's kinda chilly out here"
"Well it sure is. Do you live far from here?"
"No not too far, not too far. It depends on what you're
used to, you know. This used to be a really nice neighborhood"
"You didn't answer my question before"
"What was the question?"
"I was just wondering whether we could maybe like just
have a drink at your place and talk for 25?"
"No sweet heart. Now I realise that you're probably a
nice guy and everything, and got all good intentions. But
I'm tired you know and like 25 dollars just don't meet
nothin' that I would need"
"Well I'm tired too, I just thought that maybe?"
"And your 25 dollars is tireder than both of us"
"Well anyway, could we at least, like sit down for a
munite..."
"Oh wait, this is my cross street here, um look why don't
you give me a call. I'm in the book"
"You're in the book? I didn't. Wait a minute wait a
minute"

And I'm gonna go on home
I'm gonna go on home
Gonna go home

And the way you turned around
And looked at me boy

Ah you turned me on
I know your woman's gonna wanna know
Where all your money's gone
I say
I'm gonna go home, I wanna go on go on go on home

Would ya kindly turn loose, but please
I'm not askin' for nothin' except peace

Street walkin' woman
Street walkin' woman
Got a hold of my own soul
Got a hold of my own soul
Got stacks of problems
Got lots of problems
Gotta walk on I gotta walk on I gotta walk on
To get to break you all. I gotta walk on, gotta walk on
Just to be the girl to get the guy
Don't leave alone, don't leave me alone baby
Don't leave alone, don't leave me alone baby
Why don't you come on up in here and try me
Next Thursday baby, next Thursday baby

Street walkin' woman
Street walkin' woman

Hey street walkin' woman
Got a heart of stone
Use your money for your bus fare
And leave me alone

Because I gotta go home
I gotta go home
I gotta go home

Street walkin' woman
If I have a bad day
And if I wanna conversation
Won't give me no play

So I gotta get on
Get on get on get on get on bitch
Gotta get home

The way you turned around
And checked me out boy
I swear it turned me on
But your lady's gonna wanna know
Where your little money's gone
If I stay
So I gotta get on
I'm gonna get home

Street walkin' woman
I sure got too much pride
To stick around for fish and chips
I gotta pass
