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 blows 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, feel it rise at me
I know when a man sees you like I see
Follow down the side street, movin' single file
That's where I will warn 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 new 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
Down in the hollow, leavin' so soon
Oh, St. Teresa, higher than the moon
