Waiting On Something Good - Joe Purdy

I was walkin, just about 3rd and St Marks

But it ain’t the same as it was last time i was here

So i stood there, watchin the light as it changed

Remember that time in the rain when we ran through the streets

Yeah we were waiting on something good to go down

Just waiting on something good

Yeah we were waiting on something good to go down

Just waiting on something good

Sally, i used to show up at her door

But i don’t do that anymore, she answers my call

She says «baby, don’t you go breakin' your back

To buy me the things that i lack

Cuz i will get 'em myself

Yes and I don’t need nobodys help

Yes and I’ll love you just the same

If you ain’t got a dime to your name»

Cuz I’m waiting on something good to go down

Just waiting on something good

Yeah we were waiting on something good to go down

Just waiting on something good

On the counter, in the back of the hotel bar

I was joining a hotel choir and i just could not

And it was B-right and the Tragedies led the whole gang

And we all stood up and we sang an old gospel song

Yeah but we didn’t sing very long

Cuz we were waiting on something good to go down

Just waiting on something good

Yeah we were waiting on something good to go down

Just waiting on something good
