Waiting For The Man Sounds of The 70s: Andy Ferris by David Bowie Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm waiting for the man
Twenty-six dollars in my hand
Up to Lexington, 1-2-5
So sick and dirty
More dead than alive
I'm waiting for my man
[Verse 2]
Hey, white boy
What you doin' uptown?
Hey, white boy
You chasin' our women around?
Oh pardon me sir, it springs to my mind
I'm just lookin' for a good friend of mine
I'm waiting for my man
[Verse 3]
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 the man
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 5]
Baby don't you holler
Darlin' don't you scream and shout
I'm feeling good
I'm gonna work it on out
I'm feeling good
I'm feeling so fine
Until tomorrow
But that's just another time
I'm waiting for my man
I said I'm waiting for the man
[Verse 4]
Twenty-six dollars lying there in my hand
Up to Lexington, 1-2-5
So sick and dirty
More dead than alivе
I'm waiting for the man
[Instrumental bridge]
Back door man, oh
[Guitar solo outro coda drum solo & guitar]
Ay!
I'm waiting for the man
Twenty-six dollars in my hand
Up to Lexington, 1-2-5
So sick and dirty
More dead than alive
I'm waiting for my man
[Verse 2]
Hey, white boy
What you doin' uptown?
Hey, white boy
You chasin' our women around?
Oh pardon me sir, it springs to my mind
I'm just lookin' for a good friend of mine
I'm waiting for my man
[Verse 3]
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 the man
[Guitar solo]
[Verse 5]
Baby don't you holler
Darlin' don't you scream and shout
I'm feeling good
I'm gonna work it on out
I'm feeling good
I'm feeling so fine
Until tomorrow
But that's just another time
I'm waiting for my man
I said I'm waiting for the man
[Verse 4]
Twenty-six dollars lying there in my hand
Up to Lexington, 1-2-5
So sick and dirty
More dead than alivе
I'm waiting for the man
[Instrumental bridge]
Back door man, oh
[Guitar solo outro coda drum solo & guitar]
Ay!
