Lyrics for Gibsom Street

Don't go to Gibsom 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 Gibsom street They hang the alley cats on Gibsom street Gibsom, Gibsom street I wish my baby were forbidden I wish that my world be struck by sleet I wish to keep my mirror hidden To hide the eyes that looked on Gibsom street To hide the eyes that looked on Gibsom street Gibsom, Gibsom street In my sorrow oh my morning In my sorrow oh my morning In my sorrow oh my morning There is a man he knows where I'm going He gave me a strawberry to eat I sucked its juices never knowing That I would sleep that night on Gibsom street
