Lyrics On the East Side - Nicole Willis , The Soul Investigators

Careful when you tread
On the east side
They're going to
Lay your tricks
That maim upon
Her stride
How they made your bed
So together you will lie
In a swampy wallow
You got her
Mesmerised

She'll cry I can't take no more
She'll be running for your door
You've got the beech and straw
Your conjure's under my floor

Beckon her not
Till the morning time
A flower pledges devotion
Her virtue
Do not deride
Dress and light her candles
Laced with dust
And Van Van
The red wax glows brightly
They'll keep her
By your side

She'll cry I can't take no more
She'll be running for your door
You've got the beech and straw
Your conjure's under my floor

You got the cold shivers
And then amazing heat
Stretched across your skin
Spread from head to feet
You're walking in a trance
And then you pick up speed
A running zombie trot
You're begging on your knees
