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 
She say... 
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 
She say... 
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 called up in the sky 
You called 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
