Sit down on the corner just a little climb

When I make my money got to get my dime

Sit down with her baby wind is full of trash

She bold as the street light 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 when she looks at me

I know any man sees you like I see

Follow down the side street movin' single file

That's where I'll hold you, sleeping like a child



Way down in the hollow, leavin' so soon

Oh, St. Teresa, higher than the moon



Just what I've been needin', feel it rise in me

Every stone a story, like a rosary

Show me my Teresa, just a little climb

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
