Gibson Street Lyrics

Don't go to Gibson cross the river

the devil is hungry

the devil is sweet

if you are soft then you will shiver

they hang the alley cats on

Gibson street



I wish my baby were forbidden

I wish my world

be struck by sleet

I wish to keep my mirror hidden

to hide the eyes that looked on

Gibson street



There is a man; he knows where

I'm going

gave me a strawberry

to eat

I sucked its juices, never knowing

that I would sleep that night on

Gibson street
