I WAS LOOKING FOR SOMETHING NEW
WHEN I SAW WHAT YA HAD TO DO
HONEY I NEED SOME ONE LIKE YOU
BUT I’M TIRED OF BEING THE KID ON THE CORNER
THERE’S A CRACK IN THE CLOSET DOOR
BUT EVERYONE KNEW WHAT FOR
BUT JUST TAKE ONE STEP MORE
‘CAUSE I’M TIRED OF BEING THE KID ON THE CORNER
CHORUS:
WELL, I DON’T NEED TOO MUCH, I JUST NEED ENOUGH
WON’T YA KINDLY KEEP IN TOUCH
‘CAUSE I’M TOUGH AND YOU KNOW THAT I REALLY NEED YOUR MONEY
I WAS THINKING ABOUT LUCILLE
AND WONDERING HOW SHE’D FEEL
ABOUT WELL HIDDEN SEX APPEAL
THE ATTRACTION YA HAD FOR THE KID ON THE CORNER
CHORUS
WELL, I THINK THE BEST THING THAT YOU CAN DO IS JUST
PUT ME ON YOUR PAYROLL
IT’LL KEEP THIS MOUTH SHUT FOR A YEAR OR TWO
AND PUT SOME FRESH BREAD ON MY TABLE
