Cindy's cryin' but it ain't no use -
She's got a habit and she can't break loose.
Stoppin' each and ev'ry man she meets,
Gonna be a hooker on Bleecker Street.
On Bleecker Street,
Honey, can't you see I'm cryin'.
You said you'd leave it but you ain't even tryin'.
say you'r livin', but I see you dyin'.
Police got her on the street today,
She was holdin' and they took her away.
Threw her in jail and they made her wait,
She was cryin' "Oh, Jesus,
let me just get straight.
Let me just get straight".
Honey, can't you see I'm cryin'.
said you'd leave it but you ain't even tryin'.
say your livin, but I see you dyin.
Cindy loves me but she has to go
Down to cornor in wind and snow
Stand'n on cornor while the rain comes down
Stand'n on the cornor
Till the man comes 'round
Till the man comes 'round
Honey, can't you see I'm cryin
Say u'd leave it, but you aint even tryin
Say your livin I can see you dyin
Cindy, Cindy, whatcha gonna do?
Got no money and you're way past due.
You got every last penny I had,
The man is leaving and your credit is bad,
your credits bad,
Honey,can't u see I'm cryin'.
Said you'd leave it but you ain't even trying
say your living but I see you'r dying
Cindy went South and took the cure,
"This time, Honey, I'm straight for sure".
Went to the corner to the grocery store,
You were gone ten minutes and I know you scored,
I know you scored
can't u see I'm cryin'.
Said you'd leave it but you ain't even trying
say your living but I see you'r dying
Cindy's cryin' but it ain't no use -
She's got a habit and she can't break loose.
Stoppin' each and ev'ry man she meets,
Gonna be a hooker on Bleecker Street.
On Bleecker Street,
can't you see I'm cryin'.
You said you'd leave it but you ain't even tryin'.
say you'r livin', but I see you dyin'.

I know there are many that are fighting with
a drug problem
My heart goes out to all the
friends and families that might be involved
It is so hard to know what to do
I guess to stand by them and let them know
you are there for them
To help them when they fall and let them know
you do still care Maybe one day they will come back
Perhaps this page will touch just one
and make it all worth while
