She's a high class woman
who walks the streets at night.
She dont ask for money
just your heart and soul.
Well her makeup hides her pain
as the streets call out her name.
She stans on that street
for all the boys to see.
If you want my advice, boy,
Stay away from her,
'cause she don't take cash...
Just your heart and soul.
She's wearing her bright red dress
for you tonight.
That red dress, still stained,
with blood from the past.
If you want my advice, boy,
stay away from her,
'cause she don't take cash,
just your blood and tears.
She's a high class woman
who walks the streets at night.
She dont ask for money
just your heart and soul.
