Waitin’ On My Baby

V1
c'mon
let's go
we're gonna be late
I know I know, she says
I'll be right down
do you want my hair in curlers and my slip to show?
of course not hon
but you said that, an hour ago…
Chorus
I'm always WAITIN’ ON MY BABY
yeah, it drives me crazy
she's puttin' on a red dress and sweet perfume
why does it take her all day (last X to TAG) to get ready?
but when she comes down the stairs
I don't wanna’ go no-where’s
'cept back up stairs and wait on my baby all night
V2
for guys
it takes
what, at most an hour
that includes a shower
and we're ready to roll
but lots of ladies seem to think
that a trip to the drug store
is just an excuse for a fashion show
Chorus
Bridge
She knows I'm just teasin' her
I wouldn't have it any other way
'cuz when heads start to twirl
I'm so proud that she's my girl
Chorus

Chorus (half chorus)
TAG
but when she comes down the stairs
I don't wanna’ go anywhere’s
‘cept back up stairs
toss off our clothes and cares
and be waiting
anticipating
yeah I'll be waiting,
on my baby all night…
waitin’ on my baby all night
