Put a Flower in Your Pocket

Put a Flower in Your Pocket (放一枝花在你口袋) - The Arcs

The city street is hot

The heat is escalating

Every corner in the town

There's a paycheck waiting

Put a flower in your pocket

If you seem them boy you drop it

And you run

Run

They may pretend they like you

But man's best friend will bite you

Just for fun

For fun

If they're gunning for you boy

You've already won

I had a dream today

About a hustle lost

He paid his dues

Then he paid the cost

Wish I knew back then

All I know right now

Things would be much different

The time has allowed

Put a flower in your pocket

If you seem them boy you drop it

And you run

You run

They may pretend they like you

But man's best friend will bite you

Just for fun

For fun

If they're gunning for you boy

You've already won

With tired eyes

And bills to pay

You gotta make it through

Another day

The streets can see

Into your soul

It ain't where ya been

But where you're gonna go

Put a flower in your pocket

If you seem them boy you drop it

And you run

You run

They may pretend they like you

But man's best friend will bite you

Just for fun

For fun

If they're gunning for you boy

You've already won
