Street fighting man
He's a hard one, yes indeed
Just got in from Houston
Who knows when he'll leave
Made his reputation in small town southern bars
Everyone respects him, treats him like a star

Chorus:
Street fighter
Street fighting man
Street fighter
Street fighting man (you got to)
Watch yourself today
While you're on the run
Cover the tracks that you lay down
Your day is gonna come (yes it is)

He's got a lady waiting back home in New Orleans
A Louisana sweetheart they call the Southern Queen
He promised her they'd settle down
And make a home someday
But he said, "Babe, you've got to wait awhile
I've got one last debt to pay"

(Chorus)

[Solo]

He met his man at Steeler's Inn
Where they play cards for pay
In a flash two shots were fired
And one man rode away
The crowd began to circle him
As he lay there dying
And in the night he thought he heard
His sweetheart lady crying

(Chorus)

Reprise:
Far away over the hills and over the plains
Lawmen search for the man with no last name
A killer killed a killer, and a killer got to take the blame
Life seems wasted on some, it seems such a shame
Street fighter man
You got to run while you can
Street fighter man
You got to run while you can
