Lyrics Waiting For The Man - Lou Reed , The Velvet Underground

Good evening, we're the Velvet Underground
Glad you could all make it
This is uh our last night here
I'm glad to see you all showed up
Um do you people have a curfew or anything like that?
Does it matter what time you go home tonight?
Don't you have school tomorrow?
Nobody here has school tomorrow? yeah see
Cause we could do either one long set or we could do two sets
You know whichever makes it easier for you
One long one? okay
Okay then this is gonna go on for a while
So we should get used to each other
Settle back, pull up your cushions
Whatever else you have with you
That makes life bearable in Texas hahaha
We saw your cowboys today ... Philadelphian ...
42-7 by the half it was ridiculous
You should give other people just a little chance
At least in football anyway
This is a song called waiting for my man

I'm waiting for my man
'Bout 26 dollars in my hand
To Lexington 125
Feeling 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 our women around?
Well what he said is fresh in my mind "I'm just waiting for..."
I'm waiting for my man

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 you always gotta wait
I'm waiting for my man

Going up to a Brownstone, up three flights of stairs
Now everybody's pinned him, 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
I'm waiting for my man

Hey baby don't you holler, darling don't you bawl 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, but that's just some other time

I'm waiting for my man
I'm waiting for my man
I'm waiting for my man
I'm waiting for my man
I'm waiting for my man
I'm waiting for my man

Thank You
