Lyrics
I roam the streets of Gary with my conscience by my side
I search for sister Mary, she keeps me satisfied
And when I cast my eyes upon her
Gonna invite her to my bed
Her lips all pouty and colored a permanent red
She danced all night for me once and I could not break her spell
They say you will find heaven in a place she calls hell
This night the devil he found her
Put a bullet in her head
Her face all bruised up and bloodied a permanent red
Oh my street angel, tonight I pray for you
And in the morning, I?ll give my strength to you
So you can rise up and seek revenge
On the hurting kind - it?s not gonna end
On those hustlers and dreamers who called you friend
I led a small procession past the crowds of the State Fair
I?d heard that she had family but I did not see them there
In my dreams it?s a different story
Into my waiting arms she?d fled
Her hair all dolled up and glowing a permanent red
