Ooh, well I got a gal with a record machine 
when it comes to rockin' she' s a queen 
We love to dance on Saturday night, 
all alone I can hold her tight 
But she' s lives on the 20thfloor uptown, 
the elevator' s broken down. 


So I walk 1, 2 flight, 3 flight, 4. 5, 6, 7 flight, 8 flight more 
Up on the 12thfloor startin' to drag, 
15thfloor I' m a-ready to sag 
Get to the top, I' m too tired to rock 


Well she calls me up on the telephone says, 
Come on over, honey. I' m all alone 
I said Baby, you' re mighty sweet. 
But I' m in bed with achin' feet 
This went on for a couple o' days, 
but I couldn' t stay away. 


So I walk 1, 2 flight, 3 flight, 4. 5, 6, 7 flight, 8 flight more 
Up on the 12thfloor startin' to drag, 
15thfloor I' m a-ready to sag 
Get to the top, I' m too tired to rock 


We havin' fun yet? 
Woo! 
Well, they sent it to Chicago for repairs 
Til it gets fixed I' m usin' the stairs 
I hope they hurry before it' s too late.
 I want my baby too much to wait. 
All this a-climbin' is getting' me down. 
They' ll find my corpse draped over a rail. 


So I walk 1, 2 flight, 3 flight, 4. 5, 6, 7 flight, 8 flight more 
Up on the 12thfloor startin' to drag, 
15thfloor I' m a-ready to sag 
Get to the top, I' m too tired to rock 


Hey! 
Hah! 
A-la-da-da-da-da-da-dow! 
Crazy 


Ooh, I got a gal with a record machine 
when it comes to rockin' she' s a queen. 
We love to dance on Saturday night. 
All alone I can hold her tight. 
But she lives on the 20thfloor uptown. 
The elevator' s broken down. 


So I walk 1, 2 flight, 3 flight, 4. 5, 6, 7 flight, 8 flight more 
Up on the 12thfloor startin' to drag, 
15thfloor I' m a-ready to sag 
Get to the top, I' m too tired to rock 


Well I walk 1, 2, flight 3 flight, 4. 5, 6, 7 flight, 8 flight more. 
I' m on the stairs I' m a-startin to drag,

Ho!
