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's 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 
Way down in the hollow 
Leavin' so soon
Oh St. Teresa 
Higher than 
Hey hey !
The moon...
