Street Fighter (ストリートファイター, Sutorīto Faitā?), commonly abbreviated as SF, is a series of fighting games developed in Japan in which the players pit the video games' competitive fighters from around the world, each with his or her own unique fighting style, against one another.
Since Capcom released the first arcade game in August 1987, the series has had total home software sales of 33 million units, and arcade cabinet sales of over 500,000 units generating more than $1 billion in revenue, qualifying for the list of best-selling video game franchises, with its best-selling entry Street Fighter II exceeding $1.5 billion in revenue. The franchise has enjoyed significant success all around the world.
Street Fighter made its debut in the arcades in 1987. It was designed by Takashi Nishiyama and Hiroshi Matsumoto. The player took control of martial artist Ryu, who competed in a worldwide martial arts tournament, spanning five countries and ten opponents. A second player could join in at any time and take control of Ryu's rival, Ken.

Street fighting man
He's a hard one yes indeed
Just got in from Houston
Who knows when he'll leave
Made his reputation
In small town southern bars
Everyone respects him
Treats him like a star
Street fighter
Street fighting man
(You got to)
Watch yourself today
While you're on the run
Cover the tracks
That you lay down
Your time is gonna come
(Yes it is)
He's got a lady waiting
Back home in New Orleans
A Louisana sweetheart
They call the Southern Queen
He promised her
They'd settle down
And make a home someday
But he said, "Babe,
You've got to wait awhile.
I've got one last debt to pay."
He met his man at Steeler's Inn
Where they play
Cards for pay
In a flash
Two shots were fired
And one man rode away
The crowd began
To circle him
As he lay there dying
And in the night
He thought he heard
His sweetheart lady crying
Ah yeah
Yeah hah
Well, here he comes man of the slums
Walk the streets of the ghetto
Well I beg your time
Take what you find
Before this thing gets old
(Street fighter)
Black leather, steel engines
All the people call us street fighting man
Rude manners, hard woman
That's the reason why we join the gang
No friendship, damned cops
We just stay the way we are
Drugs and whiskey, downtown heroes
We control the city roads
Free wheeling on the highway
A hundred engines are racing around
Like thunder and lightning
Can't you hear the roaring sound?
Making rules, giving orders
You're thinking that you are the stars
But we hate you damned faces
You're little houses and bloody cars
Hate you, hate you, leave us alone, man
Keep your stuff and stay where you are
Hate you, hate you, leave us alone, man
Keep your stuff and stay where you are
Hate you, hate you, leave us alone, man
Keep your stuff and stay where you are
Hate you, hate you, leave us alone, man
Keep your stuff and stay where you are
Black leather, steel engines
All the people call us street fighting man
Rude manners, hard woman
That's the reason why we join the gang
No friendship, damned cops
We just stay the way we are
Drugs and whiskey, downtown heroes
We control the city roads
Hate you, hate you, leave us alone, man
Keep your stuff and stay where you are
Hate you, hate you, leave us alone, man
Keep your stuff and stay where you are
Hate you, hate you, leave us alone, man
Keep your stuff and stay where you are
Hate you, hate you, leave us alone, man
Keep your stuff and stay where you are
