Ooo I got a girl with a record machine
And when it comes to rockin' she's a queen
We love to dance on a Saturday night
All alone when I can hold her tight
But she lives on the 20th floor uptown
The elevator's broken down
So I walk 1 2 flight 3 flight 4
5 6 7 flight 8 flight more
By 12th I'm startin' to drag
15th floor I'm ready to sag
Get to the top I'm too tired to rock
Well she called me up on the telephone
Said Come over honey I'm all alone
I said Baby you're mighty sweet
But I'm in bed with a-achin' feet
This went on for a couple of days
But I couldn't stay away
Instrumental same pattern as chorus
Well they sent it to Chicago for repairs
Till it's fixed I'm usin' the stairs
Gotta get there before it's too late
My baby couldn't bear much to wait
All this climbin's gettin' me down
They'll find my corpse draped over a rail
Chorus this time first line is But I fly 1 2
