Schwa Lyrics

Waiting On A Friend

Lyricist: Rolling Stones
Vocalist: Ed McGee

Watching girls go passing by 
It ain't the latest thing 
I'm just standing in a doorway 
I'm just trying to make some sense 
Out of these girls go passing by 
The tales they tell of men 
I'm not waiting on a lady 
I'm just waiting on a friend 

A smile relieves a heart that grieves 
Remember what I said 
I'm not waiting on a lady 
I'm just waiting on a friend 
I'm just waiting on a friend 

Don't need a whore 
I don't need no booze 
Don't need a virgin priest 
But I need someone I can cry to 
I need someone to protect 
Making love and breaking hearts 
It is a game for youth 
But I'm not waiting on a lady 
I'm just waiting on a friend
