From Shane and the Pogues:


When I first came to london I was only sixteen
With a fiver in my pocket and my ole dancing bag
I went down to the dilly to check out the scene
And I soon ended up on the old main drag

There the he-males and the she-males paraded in style
And the old man with the money would flash you a smile
In the dark of an alley you’d work for a fiver
For a swift one off the wrist down on the old main drag

In the cold winter nights the old town it was chill
But there were boys in the cafes who’d give you cheap pills
If you didn’t have the money you’d cajole or you’d beg
There was always lots of tuinol on the old main drag

One evening as I was lying down by leicester square
I was picked up by the coppers and kicked in the balls
Between the metal doors at vine street I was beaten and mauled
And they ruined my good looks for the old main drag

In the tube station the old ones who were on the way out
Would dribble and vomit and grovel and shout
And the coppers would come along and push them about
And I wished I could escape from the old main drag

And now I’m lying here I’ve had too much booze
I’ve been shat on and spat on and raped and abused
I know that I am dying and I wish I could beg
For some money to take me from the old main drag
 
Stompin' Tom has a song called "The Happy Hooker".

Oh the land of liberation
It's a funny, funny world
In every occupation
You'll always find that girl
And I met her this morning
On my doorstep dressed in red
Pointing to her bundles
She winked at me and said

I'll lay them in the bedroom, sir
I can lay them in the hall
If I hooked them in the kitchen
I can hang them from the wall
I'm an expert on your carpet, sir
I'm the best in all the world
I'm the happy hooker
Your rug sales girl

etc, etc. :rolleyes:
 
apparently there r several types of hookers.
...........................................

Here is a more violent example written by one of the Ramones who used to turn tricks himself:

53rd & 3rd

If you think you can, well come on man I was a green beret in vietnam
No more of your fairy stories ’cause I got my other worries

53rd and 3rd standing on the street
53rd and 3rd I’m tryin’ to turn a trick
53rd and 3rd you’re the one they never pick
53rd and 3rd don’t it make you feel sick?

Then I took out my razor blade then I did what God forbade
Now the cops are after me but I proved that I’m no sissy

53rd and 3rd standing on the street
53rd and 3rd I’m tryin’ to turn a trick
53rd and 3rd you’re the one they never pick
53rd and 3rd don’t it make you feel sick?

53rd & 3rd 53rd & 3rd 53rd & 3rd 53rd & 3rd
53rd & 3rd 53rd & 3rd 53rd & 3rd 53rd & 3rd
 
Love For Sale - The Talking Heads

I was born in a house with the television always on
Guess I grew up too fast
And I forgot my name
We're in cities at night and we got time on our hands
So leave the driving to us
And it's the real thing

And you're rolling
In the blender
With me
And I can love you
Like a color
TV

Now love is here
C'mon and try it
I got love for sale
Got love for sale
And now love is here
C'mon and try it
Got love for sale
Got love for sale

You can put your lipstick all over my designer jeans
I'll be a video for you
If you turn my dial
You can cash my check if you go down to the bank
You get two for one
For a limited time

Push my button
The toast pops up
Love and money
Gettin' all
Mixed up
And now love is here
C'mon and try it
I got love for sale
Got love for sale

Love is here
C'mon and try it
I got love for sale
I got love
Love
Love
Love
Love
Love
Love
Love
 
Yep it's called the old main drag and it is either on "rum sodomy and the lash" or "poguetry in motion" although I'm pretty sure it's on rum (also the reissue of rum has most of Poguetry (thier first EP which includes the best love song of all time "measure of my dreams" on it)
 
Rum, sodomy and the lash. wow.
I will have to investigate the poques further. I was only familiar with 2 of their songs - the NY xmas one and one that's story location relates to a factory.

Lisa Dalbello has the song WHORE. I think the album was called WHORE. I can't find the lyrics online.

Murray McLauchlan's "Linda Won't You Take Me In" is about Linda Lovelace.
Not a hooker lyric, but an interesting tidbit of info. :D
 
Reno - Bruce Springsteen, off the latest Devils And Dust CD

She took off her stockings, I held them to my face.
She had your ankles, I felt filled with grace.
"Two hundred dollars straight in,
Two-fifty up the ass," she smiled and said.
She unbuckled my belt, pulled back her hair,
And sat in front of me on the bed.
She said, "Honey how's that feel, do you want me to go slow?"
My eyes drifted out the window, down to the road below.

I felt my stomach tighten. The sun bloodied the sky
And sliced through the hotel blinds. I closed my eyes.
Sunlight on the Amatitlan, sunlight streaming thru your hair.
In the Valle de dos Rios, smell of mock orange filled the air.
We rode with the vaqueros, down into cool rivers of green.
I was sure the work and that smile coming out 'neath your hat
Was all I'd ever need.
Somehow all you ever need's, never really quite enough you know.
You and I, Maria, we learned it's so.

She slipped me out of her mouth, "You're ready," she said.
She took off her bra and panties, wet her finger, slipped it inside her,
And crawled over me on the bed.
She poured me another whisky,
Said, "Here's to the best you ever had."
We laughed and made a toast.
It wasn't the best I ever had,
Not even close.
 
Motley Crue did Too young to fall in love where the video showed teen Asian prostituition.
 
Shady Lady - a forgettable song by a mostly forgotten '70s band Uriah Heep. Someone recently mentioned them in another thread, and I remembered seeing them do this song on Don Kirshner's Rock Concert, I think in about 1975 when their popularity was already fading.

...She said, ok sonny
Give me your money
And don't start any foolin' around
I said what, I said what
Don't you think you're
Turning me upside down?..

...Shady lady
Eat me up and spit me out
But let's get started now
I know what you're talking about...
And it ends with a psychotic-sounding threat
...We'll meet again one day
And don't worry 'cause when we do
I'm gonna make sure
That there ain't
Very much left of you
:eek: WTF?!
 
Interesting topic.

'Sweet Painted Lady' by Elton John. Rather poignant for a guy who hasn't balled a woman in his life. Oh wait, that's right, Bernie Taupin was the lyricist.

I'm back on dry land once again
Opportunity awaits me like a rat in the drain
We're all hunting honey with money to burn
Just a short time to show you the tricks that we've learned

If the boys all behave themselves here
Well there's pretty young ladies and beer in the rear
You won't need a gutter to sleep in tonight
Oh the prices I charge here will see you alright

So she lays down beside me again
My sweet painted lady, the one with no name
Many have used her and many still do
There's a place in the world for a woman like you

Oh sweet painted lady
Seems it's always been the same
Getting paid for being laid
Guess that's the name of the game

Forget us we'll have gone very soon
Just forget we ever slept in your rooms
And we'll leave the smell of the sea in your beds
Where love's just a job and nothing is said

And then, of course, there is the classic, 'House of the Rising Sun' by the Animals.

There is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one

My mother was a tailor
She sewed my new bluejeans
My father was a gamblin' man
Down in New Orleans

Now the only thing a gambler needs
Is a suitcase and trunk
And the only time he's satisfied
Is when he's on a drunk

Oh mother tell your children
Not to do what I have done
Spend your lives in sin and misery
In the House of the Rising Sun

Well, I got one foot on the platform
The other foot on the train
I'm goin' back to New Orleans
To wear that ball and chain

Well, there is a house in New Orleans
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God I know I'm one
 
TOO $HORT - "Blowjob Betty"


[Too $hort]
Right about now in the place to be
Too Short baby
Gettin real funky with the motherfuckin dangerous crew bitch
Too Short baby, I'm so hard
Pimpin these hos on the boulevard
But I'm not here to tell you about me
I got a little story about a nasty freak
She'd the kind a girl you think about in bed
Blowjob Betty give 'em real good head
Bust a left nut right nut in her jaw
Sperm on her cheeks is all you saw
She could blow more head than a well blows water
Blowjob Betty make your dick get harder
She's a one of a kind
A hell of a girl
A trip and a half around the world
Catch her gettin busy, bitch wouldn't stop
She's the kind a girl that make your toes pop
Every time I used to see her I would know what's up
Blowjob Betty better blow me up
I remember the day when I first met her
Bitch kinda loose so I knew I'd get her
Walked up to her, said my name is $hort
Just what you've been lookin for
Pimpin's my game
I do it the best
Ho fuck with me she don't get no rest
Well after that, I g'd the freak
I used to stop by and fuck her 'bout twice a week
And from the very first time I went to her house
Walked in the door and stuck my dick in her mouth
$hort dollar get bitches any time I wanna
Got a big dick and lay it right on the tonsils
I only stick it in about half way back
Cuz if I put it all in it bust straight through her neck
Niggas always sayin how they fucked that bitch
But I'm the only nigga that the bitch made rich
Like any other tramp, she loved to fuck
When any motherfucker got nuts to suck
I spit game to the bitch
Just like this
Why you runnin 'round suckin all that dick for no money?
It didn't take long to stay true to the game and get my pimpin' on
But every once in a while you get a stupid ho
Bitch ain't about money and she never know
How to get it
Blowjob Betty was dumb
A fiend for a fuck and a mouth full of cum
She made money for a minute but she loved the sex
So I cut the bitch loose like an old school 'vette
Six months later
I'm still the pimp
I'm still the player
One night at the club she was puttin in work
All you had to to do was step up to her
She was in the bathroom sayin "One at a time"
Wasn't my bitch but she still was fine
So I went in the back room, seen the bitch
Slapped her on the head, said "You ready to switch?"
And to the players out there, instantly
Blowjob Betty started servin' me
Cuz the player I am
Til the day I'm dead
I was sittin on the sink
Gettin some head
It was all so good and much too true
One young freak and the whole damn crew
But then I shot that fatal nut
Must 'a knocked that bitch on her butt
She couldn't even breath she was holdin her throat
Me and my homies just hit the door
My homeboys said "$hort don't worry"
But that next day I read this story
A young girl died just last night
She choked on sperm in her windpipe
It was on her face, her neck and chest
And we're sorry to say there's no suspects
When I saw that
My brain clicked
I bust a nut and killed a bitch
It might sound sick, it might be petty
But you never got sucked by Blowjob Betty
Betty [6x, fading]

[Talking]
Biyatch!
Yea, ho...haha
Y'all niggas don't know though
 
I thought we might skip the rap or we'd be writing volumes.

elton has seen many the painted ladies I am sure. Drag queens.

I'm shocked by the Springsteen song. He was so mainstream for being that graphic.

How 'bout some Canadian content?

Ian Thomas had an Album titled "Painted Ladies"

I remember setting out just to see what I could see
Streetcars rolling by and airplanes flying high thay all meant nothing to me
No one ever looked my way or knew that i was there
I kept walking and the rain kept raining
Untill all the streets were bare

Ooh ooh feeling fine mama
Painted ladies and a bottle of wine mama
Ooh ooh Feeling good mama
They took my money like I knew they would
La la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la

City lights were shining on me through my window pane
I kept thinking 'bout the day when I'd be home again
Rocking chairs and summer fairs and swimming in the sea
I kept drinkin', sinkin' 'til there was nothing left of me

Ooh ooh feeling fine mama
Painted ladies and a bottle of wine mam
Ooh ooh feeling good mama
They took my money like I knew they would
La la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la

The lean and hungry type
Nothing is new, I've seen her her before
Watching and waiting
Ooh, She's sittin' with you but her eyes are on the door

(Oh-oh, here she comes) Watch out boy she'll chew you up
(Oh-oh, here she comes) She's a maneater
(Oh-oh, here she comes) Watch out boy she'll chew you up
(Oh-oh, here she comes) She's a maneater
I wouldn't if I were you

She's deadly man, she could really rip your worldapart
Mind over matter
Ooh, the beauty is theer but a beast isin the heart


Ooh,
