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 White boy, what you doing uptown? Hey, white boy, you 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 PR 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 a brownstone, up three flights of stairs Everybody-body's pinned you, but nobody cares He's got the works, gives you sweet taste Aw, then you gotta split because 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'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 Walk me home, ah, that's all right
