There’s a place way down in Bed Stuy Where a boy lives behind bricks He’s got an eye for girls who’re 18 And he turns them out like tricks I went down to a place in Bed Stuy A little liquor on my lips I let him climb inside my body And held him captive in my kiss And there’s a storm you’re starting now And there’s a storm you’re starting now And there’s a storm you’re starting
I’m a wanderess I’m a one night stand Don’t belong to no city, don’t belong to no man I’m the violence in the pouring rain I’m a hurricane I’m a hurricane I’m a hurricane
I went down to a place in Brooklyn Where you tripped on LSD And I found myself reminded To keep you far away from me And there’s a storm you’re starting now And there’s a storm you’re starting now And there’s a storm you’re starting
I’m a wanderess I’m a one night stand Don’t belong to no city, don’t belong to no man I’m the violence in the pouring rain I’m a hurricane I’m a hurricane I’m a hurricane
He says, “Oh baby, begging you to save me. Well lately, well I’ve been crazy. Oh baby, you could devastate me. Little lady, come and fade me.”
I’m a wanderess I’m a one night stand Don’t belong to no city, don’t belong to no man I’m the violence in the pouring rain (Come and fade me) (Come and fade me)
