The Velvet Underground & Nico - I'm Waiting for the Man lyrics

I'm waiting for my man Twenty-six dollars in my hand Up to Lexington, one, two, five Feel sick and dirty, more dead than alive I'm waiting for my man Hey, white boy, what you doin' uptown? Hey, white boy, you chasin' our women around? Oh pardon me sir, it's the 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 Beat up 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, ah work it now 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 Ah then you gotta split because you got no time to waste I'm waiting for my man
