Sweet Sister Ray went to a movie   that had come around   It was the biggest movie   that had ever come to town      Why this is the weirdest movie   I've seen in my days   I've never seen a stranger film anywhere      Why I must be dead   'cause I never felt this way ailve   Oh I've never felt this way   since nineteen fifty-five   Just then Sister Ray   felt a hand on her knee   [I'm] a young crippled orphan   and I come here constantly      Why it's just like a mental hospital   those don't have any locks   Just then comes in the doctor   giving us electroshocks      All the vaseline on your forehead   makes you feel so nice   My hair stood up on end   and I thought I'd been froze(?) with a knife   Oh I'm so pretty   purple earrings and all   No one knew you were crazy   That you told 'em      Just then I saw   a hole in the ground   And I jumped right in   'cause there was no one around      [long instrumental break into "Sister Ray"]      (Transcribed from original recording; La Cave, Cleveland, 28 April, 1968)
