It's not easy on my bed sheets
It's not easy on my nerves
It's not easy on my conscience
It's not easy on my soul
This is not what you wanted
What you wanted from me
I know that much now, my appologies
You would call me a heartless
You would call me a whore
But see I'm man now, oh with so much more

But I've got the heart of a hustler
With a hustler's pain
I've got the heart of a hustler
With all the hustler's shame
I've got the body of a lover
With a masochist's brain
I've got the heart of a hustler
I'm playing a dangerous game

The mind says "no, sir!"
But the body says "please!"
The heart stays silent
Such a silent tease
And I don't know why I'm telling you this
Maybe I've gotta get it off my unholy chest
There's oh much trouble
When I haven't worked down yet
And it calls my name, it calls my name
Yes it's calls my name
It's a darker path, and it calls my name

I've got the heart of a hustler
With a hustler's pain
I've got the heart of a hustler
With all the hustler's shame
I've got the body of a lover
With a masochist's brain
I've got the heart of a hustler
I'm playing a dangerous game
I'm playing a dangerous game
I'm playing a dangerous game
I'm playing a dangerous game

But I've got the heart of a hustler
With a hustler's pain
I've got the heart of a hustler
With all the hustler's shame
I've got the body of a lover
With a masochist's brain
I've got the heart of a hustler
I'm playing a dangerous game
