Pete And The Shadow 11 On The Street Lyrics
11 On The Street by Pete And The Shadow
I nearly broke my neck
As I saw the lady, walk on by
Such outrageous beauty
Brought a tear to my eye
11 on the street
She's 11 on the street
It's just a number!
Just a number
Batting above my weight
But I don't really care
Take a chance, a leap of faith
I just, gotta, gotta go there!
What's your name
What's your number
Give me a steer, the rodeo's here
Show me how to play your game
You can start by sharing your name
Now - I dress nice,
I look cool
I'm more of a 6, my lady
But I'm no fool
Another thing
Just one more thing...
I'm a man, at your door
And I'm knocking, just as hard as I can
Now I'm not rich, but I'm not poor
And I can take you places
In the shiny white van!
It's nice and shiny
11 on the street
She's 11 on the street
It's just a number!
Just a number
Look at me
I'm not bad
Maybe a 8
11 on the street
She's 11 on the street
It's just a number!
Just a number
It's just a number!
Just a number
As I saw the lady, walk on by
Such outrageous beauty
Brought a tear to my eye
11 on the street
She's 11 on the street
It's just a number!
Just a number
Batting above my weight
But I don't really care
Take a chance, a leap of faith
I just, gotta, gotta go there!
What's your name
What's your number
Give me a steer, the rodeo's here
Show me how to play your game
You can start by sharing your name
Now - I dress nice,
I look cool
I'm more of a 6, my lady
But I'm no fool
Another thing
Just one more thing...
I'm a man, at your door
And I'm knocking, just as hard as I can
Now I'm not rich, but I'm not poor
And I can take you places
In the shiny white van!
It's nice and shiny
11 on the street
She's 11 on the street
It's just a number!
Just a number
Look at me
I'm not bad
Maybe a 8
11 on the street
She's 11 on the street
It's just a number!
Just a number
It's just a number!
Just a number
