Little by little You slide from the light Down in a dark part of town You’re here for the night You’re too weary now To put up a fight She'll lead you to the underground Of dirty delights Way too late to turn back now They call her angel Red leather, jet - black hair Cool as the devil And you will follow her anywhere Deep in this heartless city You go on down these dirty streets Strange - looking people They give you the strangest looks Talk about evil This is the lady who wrote the book You'll get a wild side welcome You’re gonna love these dirty streets * (Better watch your step) Dirty streets (Try to keep your head) Dirty streets (Better watch your step) Dirty streets (Try to keep your head) Before your angel Down on your knees You'll never leave these dirty streets
