Thank you

This is another one, a blast from the past
It's about a run-in in a subway
It go do something
I'm, waiting for my man
ย
I got 26 dollars, uh, in my hand
ย
Up to Lexington, 125
Feelin' sick and dirty all day and life
Ooh, sweet mama, I'm waiting for my man
ย
Huh, hey, white boy, what you doin' uptown?
ย
Hey, white boy, are you chasin' all women around
ย
Oh, pardon me, sir, it's furthest from my mind
I'm just waitin' here for a dear, dear friend of mine
I'm waiting for my man
ย
Here he comes, he's all dressed in black, like me
PR shoes and a big straw hat
ย
He's never early, he's always late
First thing you learn is that you always gotta wait
I'm waiting for my man
This is what it sounds like
ย
Up to a brownstone, up three flights of stairs
ย
Everybody's pinned you, but nobody cares
He's got the works, gives you sweet taste
Then he's gotta split because he's got no time to waste
Yeah, yeah, yeah, baby, I'm waiting for my man
ย
Hey, baby, don't you holler, don't you bawl and shout
You know your uncle Louis is feeling good
He's gonna work it on out
I'm feeling good, I'm feeling so fine
Until tomorrow, but there's still some other time
I'm, I'm waiting for my man
I'm waiting for my man, keep it comin' now, baby
I'm waiting for my man
Alright, I'm waiting for my man
ย
Thank you
