Intro: instrumental music: verse #1: I was born, way down in New Orleans. Went to the school, of broken dreams. I was not too smart but had plenty of Street Sense I knew just how to play the fence I hung with the kids from the other side of the tracks Always in trouble with the law some of us never came back. I ran when sirens wailed They'll never track my trail I knew where to hide That train would always derail chorus: I Got that Street Sense Yea Street Sense and that punk attitude I got that Street Sense, Yea Street Sense Nobody can catch me I will always elude They call it Street Sense verse #2: Be aware of your surroundings Lock your doors and look around. Take a glance behind you Shadows passing on the ground I got eyes behind my head I keep a loaded gun near my bed Ready for something or anyone who might shoot me dead chorus: Got that Street Sense Yea Street Sense and that punk attitude I got that Street Sense, Yea Street Sense Nobody can catch me I will always elude They call it Street Sense bridge: But I was always able to avoid the chaos that ensued. I'd slip through the back alley everytime they pursued. All my friends they'd ask "may I approach the bench" But no not me, I got that Street Sense They'll never catch me !!! solo: chorus: Got that Street Sense Yea Street Sense and that punk attitude I got that Street Sense, Yea Street Sense Nobody can catch me I will always elude They call it Street Sense Verse #3: Then one day my talent was put to the test They finally caught up and made my arrest The time had come forced to rat on my friends Now I am just a snitch My running is at an end Intro: instrumental music: verse #1: I was born, way down in New Orleans.
