| Sitting on a bench at West Town Mall
|
| He sat down in his overalls and asked me
|
| You Waiting on a woman
|
| I nodded yeah and said how 'bout you
|
| He said son since nineteen fifty-two I’ve been
|
| Waiting on a woman
|
| When I picked her up for our first date
|
| I told her I’d be there at eight
|
| And she came down the stairs at eight-thirty
|
| She said I’m sorry that I took so long
|
| Didn’t like a thing that I tried on
|
| But let me tell you son she sure looked pretty
|
| Yeah she’ll take her time but I don’t mind
|
| Waiting on a woman
|
| He said the wedding took a year to plan
|
| You talk about an anxious man, I was nervous
|
| Waiting on a woman
|
| And then he nudged my arm like old men do
|
| And said, I’ll say this about the honeymoon, it was worth it
|
| Waiting on a woman
|
| And I don’t guess we’ve been anywhere
|
| She hasn’t made us late I swear
|
| Sometimes she does it just cause she can do it
|
| Boy it’s just a fact of life
|
| It’ll be the same with your young wife
|
| Might as well go on and get used to it
|
| She’ll take her time because you don’t mind
|
| Waiting on a woman
|
| I’ve read somewhere statistics show
|
| The man’s always the first to go
|
| And that makes sense cause I know she won’t be ready
|
| So when it finally comes my time
|
| And I get to the other side
|
| I’ll find myself a bench, if they’ve got any
|
| I hope she takes her time, cause I don’t mind
|
| Waiting on a woman
|
| Honey, take your time, cause I don’t mind
|
| Waiting on a woman |
