Poison Girl Lyrics


Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Moonlight over the alley

Baby, where I come from

There's a poison girl, poison girlSister do medicine business

Three dollar down for the gun

She's a poison girl, a poison girlI'll be waiting uptown

While she gone underground for a ride, yeah

I'll be waiting uptown

While she passes some trick on the sideWell, I'm sitting here burning my money

Worth nothing if only to score

With some poison girl, a poison girl - okThere'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 iceWell, now, mama said, "Son, what's your hurry?"

Mama don't know what I done

For the poison girl, the poison girl

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

His 12 albums, ranging from raw-boned folk-rock to lush electro-blues, had the thread of intense emotion and constant invention running through them. Whitley was born in Houston, Texas. Though relatively unknown to the mainstream, he worked with many top named musicians throughout his career.
