DmF
Woman please be gone
GBbA7
You've stayed here much too long
DmF
Don't you wish that you could cry
GBbA7
Don't you wish I would die
DmF
Seamy seesaw kids
GBbA7
Child women on the skids
DmF
The dust will choke you blind
GBbA7
The lust will choke your mind
Chorus: *Dm ( all the way through)
I hit the floor one kick no more
The pig and hose have set me free
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree
Dm, F, G, Bb, A7 x2
Chorus: *Dm ( all the way through)
I hit the floor one kick no more
The pig and hose have set me free
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree

DmF
The inner city birthed me
GBbA7
The local pusher nursed me
DmF
Cousins make it on the street
GBbA7
They marry every trick they meet
DmF
A dime a dollar, it's all the same
GBbA7
When a man comes in to bust your game
DmF
The turn key comes, his face a grin
GBbA7
Locks the cell, I'm in again
Chorus *Dm ( all the way through)
I hit the floor one kick no more
The pig and hose have set me free
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree
I've tasted hate street's hanging tree (fade out)
