Laura Nyro - 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 s**ed its juices, never knowing That I would sleep that night on Gibson street
