Uptown!
Yeah!
It was only last June
when her old man ran away.
She couldn't stop crying,
'cause she knew he was gone to stay.
Baby, it's not tears in your eyes, is it?
Wally, what am I gonna do?
She was standin' by the bar,
she was lookin' alright, yeah.
I asked her if she wanted to dance,
and she said all she wanted was a good man
and wanted to know
if I thought I was qualified. Yeah.
And I said, "Baby, don't waste your time"
I know what's on your mind.
I may be qualified for a one-night stand,
but I could never take the place of your man.
It hurt me so bad when she told me
with tears in her eyes.
He was all she ever had,
and now she wanted to die.
He left her with a baby
and another one on the way. Yeah.
She couldn't stop crying
'cause she knew he was gone to stay.
She asked me if we could be friends,
and I said, "Oh, honey, baby, that's a dead end."
You know and I know
that we wouldn't be satisfied.
No!
And I said, "Baby, don't waste your time"
I know what's on your mind.
You wouldn't be satisfied!
With a one-night stand.
And I could never take the place of your man. Oh!
Yeah, yeah, the place of your man.
Oh...
