Lyrics

Moonlight over the alley Baby, where I come from There's a poison girl, poison girl Sister do medicine business Three dollar down for the gun She's a poison girl, poison girl I be waiting uptown While she gone underground for a ride I be waiting uptown While she passes some trick on the side Well, I'm sitting here burning my money It worth nothing if only to score With that poison girl, poison girl There's a place and I know Anybody can go for their price There's a place and I know You be putting your soul up on ice Well, well, mama said, "Son, what is your hurry?" Mama did not even know what I have done For that poison girl, poison girl
