Lyrics

She goes

She begins her journey

Down the boulevard yeah

Proceeds along the main street

No home

Without a permanent residence

Strolls the avenue

Walks casually along the street

Yeah

Expressing affirmation or excitement

See these Alley Cats

Referring to other people in a similar lifestyle

They all know her

They are familiar with her

Cigarette in hand

Holding a cigarette

They all call her

They address her by a common name

They don't look at her

They avoid direct eye contact

Rich men in ties

Wealthy men wearing formal attire

As they walk past her

Passing by her as they stroll

Don't glimpse an eye

They don't pay attention to her

But they know her

Yet, they are aware of her presence

By the night

During the nighttime

Yeah they love her

They have affection for her

Too much by night

Excessive love for her during the night

In the morning

The next morning

He'll take her back

Someone will bring her back

To the corner store

To a nearby store

She looks up at the sky

She gazes at the sky

Through the concrete jungle

Despite the urban environment

Cause' she got bad habits

Because she has vices

Like the rest

Similar to other individuals in the same situation

Of the alley cats

She possesses undesirable behaviors like her peers

Yeah she got bad habits like the rest of the alley cats

Reiteration of her shared habits with others

She does what she got to do to make it through the day

She does what is necessary to survive the day

Oo oo

Expressing emotions or sounds

She walks through the track just to make it through the day

She walks through a challenging path to endure the day

Oooo

Additional expression of emotions or sounds

Through the jungle

Navigating through a difficult environment

Concrete jungle yeah

Reiteration of the challenging urban setting

Through the jungle

Continuing to traverse the tough environment

Concrete jungle yeah

Reiteration of the challenging urban setting
