Well I got a girl with a record machine, When it comes to rocking she's the queen. I like to dance on a saturday night, All alone where I can hold her tight. She lives on the twentieth floor uptown. The elevator's broken down.
So I walked one, two flight, three flight four, Five six seven flight, eight flight more. Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag, Fifteenth floor I'm ready to drag. Get to the top and I'm too tired to rock.
When she calls me up on the telephone, [Said] come on over baby I'm all alone. I said baby you're mighty sweet, But I'm in bed with aching feet. This went on for a couple of days, But I could not stay away.
So I walked one, two flight, three flight four, Five six seven flight, eight flight more. Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag, Fifteenth floor I'm ready to drag. Get to the top and I'm too tired to rock.
Well I sent to Chicago for repairs, Till it's fixed I'm using the stairs. I hope they hurry, before it's too late, I love my baby too much to wait. All this climbing is getting me down, They'll find my corpse draped over the rail.
And I (climb) walk one, two flight, three flight four, Five six seven flight, eight flight more. Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag, Fifteenth floor I'm ready to drag. Get to the top and I'm too tired to rock.
Well I got a girl with a record machine, When it comes to rocking, you know, she's the queen. I took her to a dance on a saturday night, All alone where I can hold her tight. She lives on the twentieth floor uptown. The elevator's broken down.
And I walk one, two flight, three flight four, Five six seven flight, eight flight more. Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag, Fifteenth floor I'm ready to drag, I get to the top and I'm too tired to rock.
