Well I got a girl with a record machine,
When it comes to rocking she's a queen.
I took her to a dance on a Saturday night,
All alone where I can hold her tight.
She lives on the twenieth floor uptown,
The elevator's broken down.
And I walk one flight, two, 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?
Well she called me up on the telephone?
Said come over baby 'cause 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 couldn't stay away?
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?
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 me hanging over the rail?
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?
You know I'm too tired to rock.
