I'm waiting for my man
|
Twenty-six dollars in my hand
|
Up to Lexington, 125
|
Feel sick and dirty, more dead than alive
|
I'm waiting for my man
|
Hey, white boy, what you doin' uptown?
|
Hey, white boy, you chasin' our women around?
|
Oh pardon me sir, it's the furthest from my mind
|
I'm just lookin' for a dear, dear friend of mine
|
I'm waiting for my man
|
Here he comes, he's all dressed in black
|
Beat up shoes and a big straw hat
|
He's never early, he's always late
|
First thing you learn is you always gotta wait I'm waiting for my man
|
Up to a Brownstone, up three flights of stairs
|
Everybody's pinned you, but nobody cares
|
He's got the works, gives you sweet taste
|
Ah then you gotta split because you got no time to waste
|
I'm waiting for my man
|
Baby don't you holler, darlin' don't you bawl and shout
|
I'm feeling good, you know I'm gonna work it on out
|
I'm feeling good, I'm feeling oh so fine
|
Until tomorrow, but that's just some other time
|
I'm waiting for my man
