I'll Be Waiting

[Verse 1] When the cock crows in the morning On another red letter day I'll be a busy bee, honey I'll be working hard for my pay And in the cold light of the evening When you just can't find your way I'll be a stargazer, darling I'm gonna search 'til we find our way And when the apple trees are blooming And there's a new child on the way I'll be an ass-beater, honey I'm gonna work hard night and day [Chorus] I'll be waiting Oh, waiting patiently No hesitating When you call me I'll be ready [Verse 2] And when the blue night blacks above you And your old ghosts come out to play I'll be Dan Aykroyd, honey I'm gonna chase those ghouls away But when the long nights twist and turning And even sleep won't find you, babe I'll tell you stories from the city I'll take you half a world away [Chorus] I'll be waiting Oh, waiting patiently No hesitating Oh, when you call me I'll be ready I'll be waiting Oh, waiting patiently No hesitating Oh, when you call me I'll be ready I'll be ready Oh, babe
