Sister Ray

The Velvet Underground

4

Duck and Sally inside

They′re cooking for the down pipe

Who're staring at Miss RayonWho′s busy licking up her pig pen

I'm searching for my mainline

I said I couldn't hit it sideways

I said I couldn′t hit it sideways

Oh, just like Sister Ray said

Whip it on ′em

Rosey and Miss Rayon

They're busy waiting for her booster

Who just got back from Carolina

She said she didn′t like the weather

They're busy waiting for her sailor

Who says he′s just as big as ever

He says he's from Alabama

He wants to know a way to earn a dollar

I′m searching for my mainer

I said I couldn't hit it sideways

I couldn't hit it sideways

Oh, just like Sister Ray said

Lay it on ′em

Cecil′s got his new piece

He cocks and shoots it between three and four

He aims it at the sailor

Shoots him down dead on the floor

Oh, you shouldn't do that

Don′t you know you'll stain the carpet?

Now don′t you know you'll stain the carpet?

And by the way, have you got a dollar?

Oh, no, man, I haven′t got the time, time

Too busy sucking on a ding-dong

She's busy sucking on my ding-dong

Oh, she does just like Sister Ray said

I'm searching for my mainline

I said I cou-cou-couldn′t hit it sideways

I cou-cou-cou-cou-cou-cou-cou-cou-cou-couldn′t hit it sideways

Oh just, just, it just, just, just, just, just, just, just, just

Ray's all on ′em

Oh!

Now, who is that knocking?

Who's knocking at that chamber door?

Now could it be the police?

They come to take me for a ride, ride

Oh, but I haven′t got the time, time

Hey, hey, hey she's busy sucking on my ding-dong

She′s busy sucking on my ding-dong
