Poison Girl - Chris Whitley

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 a poison girl

I'll be waiting uptown

While she gone underground for a ride yeah

I'll be waiting uptown

While she passes some trick on the side

Well I'm sitting here burning my money

Worth nothing if only to score

With some poison girl a poison girl - ok

There's a place and I know

Anybody can go for a price yeah

There's a place and I know

You'll be putting your soul upon ice

Well now mama said "Son what's your hurry "

Mama don't know what I done

For the poison girl the poison girl
