I'm Waiting For The Man - Album Version (Mono)

Lyrics

I'm waiting for my man
26 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
I'm workin' it

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 so fine
Until tomorrow, but that's just some other time
I'm waiting for my man

Walking home

That's alright
