I had skin like leather and the diamond hard look of a cobra

Dance just like a Casa Nova
F# G# A#m
With my blackjack jacket and hair slicked sweet
F# G# A#m
Silver star studs on my duds like a Harley in the heat
A#m F# G# A#m F# G#
When I strut down the street I could feel it's heart beat
F# G# A#m
The sisters fell back and said "don't that man look pretty"

The cripple on the corner cried out "nickels for your pity"
A#m G# A#m
Them down town boys sure talk gritty

It's so hard to be a saint in the city

I was the king of the alley, mama, I could talk some trash
C# A#m F# G# A#m
The prince of the paupers crowned downtown at the beggars bash
A#m F#
I was the pimps main prophet I kept every thing cool
A#m F#
Just a backstreet gambler with the luck to lose
F# G# A#m
When the heat came down and it was left on the ground
F# G# A#m
The devil appeared like Jesus through the steam in the street
