Well, sent to Chicago for repairs
Went to a dance on a Saturday night
But I'm in bed with a aching feet"
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag
You know I'm too tired, babe
They'll find my corpse draped over the rail
Fifteen before I'm ready to drag
Till it's fixed I'm usin' the stairs
The elevator's broken down
Get to the top and I'm too tired to rock
I hope they hurry, before it's too late
Went to a dance on a Saturday night
Get to the top and I'm too tired to rock
She lives on the twentieth floor uptown
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag
All alone where I could hold her tight
But I could not stay away
Ooh, well, I got a girl with a record machine
Well, I walk one, two flight, three flight four
When it comes to rockin', you know she's a queen
I said, "Baby, you're mighty sweet
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag
All alone where I could hold her tight
You know, I love my baby too much to wait
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
Fifteen before I'm ready to drag
She lives on the twentieth floor uptown
I walk one, two flight, three flight four
Fifteen before I'm ready to drag
Fifteen before I'm ready to drag
Said, "Come on over, baby, I'm all alone"
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
But I walk one, two flight, three flight four
I get to the top and I'm too tired to rock
So I walk one, two flight, three flight four
The elevator's broken down
Ohh, woh
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
Well, she, she called me up on the telephone
All this climbing is getting me down
This went on for a couple of days
