I'm Waiting for the Man - The Weeks

I’m waiting for my man

Twenty-six dollars in my hand

Up to Lexington, 125

Feeling sick and dirty, more dead than alive

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 that you learn is you always gotta wait

I’m waiting for my man

Up to Brownstone, up three flights of stairs

Everybody’s pinned you, nobody cares

He’s got the works, gives you a sweet taste

And then you gotta split, no time to waste

I’m waiting for my man

Baby, don’t you worry, don’t you scream and shout

I’m feeling good, you know I’m gonna work it on out

I’m feeling good, I’m feeling, oh, so fine

Until tomorrow, 'cause that’s just some other time

I’m waiting for my man

I’m waiting for the man
