I′ve got a brown eyed lover

On the other side of town

I don't wanna keep her waiting

(I don′t wanna keep her waiting, waiting)

She's got me upside tongue-tied

Twisted all around

I don't wanna keep her waiting

(I don′t wanna keep her waiting, waiting)

Well, I don′t know

I can't tell

Will this last

Or just come and go?

It came so fast

And my feet feel cold

But my mind is for sure

And my heart remains

Oh, she′s got everything you want

Wardrobe bought at the thrift shop

And all my friends adore her

She reminds me of my mother

She wonders how my day went

And don't care about my paychecks

Well, I don′t wanna keep my baby waiting

I've got a brown eyed lover

On the other side of town

I don′t wanna keep her waiting

(I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting)

She's got me upside tongue-tied

Twisted all around

I don′t wanna keep her waiting

(I don′t wanna keep her waiting, waiting)

Oh, she's got everything you want

Let′s me pick the restaurants

And all my friends adore her

And I can still afford her

She wishes I'd stop worrying

About where my next paycheck is

Well, I don′t wanna keep my baby waiting!

I've got a brown eyed lover

On the other side of town

I don′t wanna keep her waiting

(I don't wanna keep her waiting, waiting)

I don't wanna keep her waiting

(I don′t wanna keep her waiting, waiting)

I don′t wanna keep her waiting
