[Verse 1]
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's bold as the street light, dark and sweet as hash

[Chorus]
Way down in the hollow leavin' so soon
Oh, St. Teresa, higher than the moon

[Verse 2]
Reach down for the sweet stuff, feel it rise in me
I know any man sees you like I see
Follow down the side street, movin' single file
That's where I will hold you, sleeping like a child

[Chorus]
Way down in the hollow, leavin' so soon
Oh, St. Teresa, higher than the moon

[Verse 3]
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
[Chorus]
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
