Lyrics

She was a queen of the L.A. scene And she was quite well-to-do She was fast and fun and famous She had looks and money too Dancing at the disco, listening to the radio She marched to a different beat But she started running with that crowd And now she's on the street He made straight A's in college He was one of a different breed Then he went into computers With his future guaranteed But he caught white-line fever And he started staying high Now he's scared and drunk and forty And the world has passed him by They thought they had it made In the shade, in the big time They were running with the jet set But every dog has his day I guess that's the price that you pay When you run with that crowd It's three o'clock in the morning On the dirty side of town A car pulls to the curb And then another deal goes down In the heat of all the action And the shuffling of the feet Somebody pulls a gun And now there's bodies in the street They thought they had it made In the shade, in the big time They were running with the jet set But every dog has his day I guess that's the price that you pay When you run with that crowd When you run with that crowd When you run with that crowd When you run with that crowd When you run with that crowd
