I'm Waiting for the Man
(I) I'm waiting for my man
(I) I'm waiting for my man
26 dollars in my hand
Up to Lexington, one, two, five
Feel sick and dirty, more dead than alive
(I) I'm waiting for my man
Hey, white boy, what you doin' uptown?
Hey, white boy, you chasin' all our women around?
Pardon me, sir, it's furthest from my mind
I'm just lookin' for a dear friend of mine
(I) yeah, 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) I'm waiting for my man, waiting for my man (I)
Up to a brownstone, up three flights of stairs
Everybody's pinned you, yeah, and nobody cares, yeah
He's got the works, gives you sweet taste
You gotta split because you got no time to waste
(I) I'm waiting for my man
Baby, don't you holler, baby, don't you scream and shout
Yeah, I'm feeling good, you know I'm gonna work it on out
Yeah, I'm feeling good, I'm feeling, oh, so fine
Until tomorrow, that's just some other time
(I) yeah, I'm waiting for my man, yeah
(I) I'm waiting for my man
Yeah, walk it, walk it
I'm waiting for my man
I'm waiting for my man
(I) I'm waiting for my man
26 dollars in my hand
Up to Lexington, one, two, five
Feel sick and dirty, more dead than alive
(I) I'm waiting for my man
Hey, white boy, what you doin' uptown?
Hey, white boy, you chasin' all our women around?
Pardon me, sir, it's furthest from my mind
I'm just lookin' for a dear friend of mine
(I) yeah, 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) I'm waiting for my man, waiting for my man (I)
Up to a brownstone, up three flights of stairs
Everybody's pinned you, yeah, and nobody cares, yeah
He's got the works, gives you sweet taste
You gotta split because you got no time to waste
(I) I'm waiting for my man
Baby, don't you holler, baby, don't you scream and shout
Yeah, I'm feeling good, you know I'm gonna work it on out
Yeah, I'm feeling good, I'm feeling, oh, so fine
Until tomorrow, that's just some other time
(I) yeah, I'm waiting for my man, yeah
(I) I'm waiting for my man
Yeah, walk it, walk it
I'm waiting for my man
I'm waiting for my man
