She down on the corner, just a little crime When I make my money, got to get my dime She down with her baby, wind is full of trash She bold as a streetlight, dark and sweet as hash
Way down in the hollow, leavin' so soon Oh, St. Teresa, higher than the moon
Reach down for the sweet stuff, way she looks at me I know any man sees you like I see Follow down the side street, move in single file She said, "That's where I'll hold you, sleepin' like a child"
Way down in the hollow, leavin' so soon Oh, St. Teresa, higher than the moon
Just what I been needin', feel it rise in me She said, "Every stone a story, like a rosary" Corner St. Teresa, just a little crime When I make my money, got to get my dime
Way down in the hollow, leavin' so soon Oh, St. Teresa, higher than the moon
You crawled up in the sky You crawled up in the clouds Is there something you forgot to tell me Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me
Show me, my Teresa, feel it rise in me Every stone a story, like a rosary
