"I'm Waiting For The Man"


	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 doing uptown
	Hey white boy, you chasing no women around?
	Oh, pardon me, Sir, it's 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
	P.R. 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, I'm working at 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
	or then you gotta split because you've 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 so good, I'm gonna work it all out
	I'm feeling good, I'm feeling oh so fine
	until tomorrow, but that's just some other time
	I'm waiting for my man, walk it home
