I'M WAITING FOR THE MAN Sign in or register

 
I'm waiting for my man
Got twenty-six dollars in my hand
Up to Lexington 125
Feel sick and dirty
More dead than alive
I'm waiting for my man

Up to Brownstone
Up three flights of stairs
Everybody's pinned and nobody cares
Pardon me sir
It's furthest from my mind
I'm just waiting for the dear dear friend of mine
I'm waiting for my man

Waiting
Waiting for my man
Waiting
Waiting for my man
Waiting
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

Hey baby don't you holler
Don't you bawl and shout
I'm feeling good
I'm gonna work it on out
I'm feeling good
Feeling so fine
Until tomorrow
It's just some other time
I'm waiting for my man
Waiting
I'm waiting for my man
Waiting
I'm waiting for my man
Waiting
I'm waiting for my man
Waiting
Waiting for my man
Waiting
I'm waiting for my man
Waiting
Waiting for my man
Waiting
I'm waiting for my man
Waiting
I'm waiting for my man
Waiting
I'm waiting for my man
Waiting
I'm waiting for my man
Waiting
Waiting for my man

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 doing uptown
Hey white boy
Chasing our women around
Oh pardon me sir
It's the furthest from my mind
I'm just looking 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 that you always gotta wait
I'm waiting for my man

Up to Brownstone
Up three flights of stairs
Everybody's pinned you but nobody cares
He's got the works
Gives you sweet taste
You gotta split but you got no time to waste
I'm waiting for my man

Baby don't you holler
Darling don't you bawl and shout
I'm feeling good
You know I work it on out
I'm feeling good
I'm feeling fine
Until tomorrow but that's just some other time
I'm waiting for my man
I'm waiting for my man
I'm waiting for my man
