Woman please be gone
|
You've stayed here much too long
|
Don't you wish that you could cry
|
Don't you wish I would die.
|
|
Seamy, seesaw kids
|
Childwoman on the skids
|
The dust will choke you blind
|
The lust will choke your mind.
|
|
I kiss the floor, one kick no more
|
The pig and hose have set me free
|
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree
|
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree.
|
|
[Instrumental]
|
|
I kiss the floor, one kick no more
|
The pig and hose have set me free
|
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree
|
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree.
|
|
The inner city birthed me
|
The local pusher nursed me
|
Cousins make it in the street
|
They marry every trick they meet.
|
|
A dime, a dollar they're all the same
|
When a man comes in to bust your game
|
The turn key comes, his face a grin
|
Locks the cell I'm in again.
|
|
I kiss the floor, one kick no more
|
The pig and hose have set me free
|
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree
|
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree
|
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree
|
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree...
