When you bumped into me on a crowded avenue I knew I couldn't let you slide I knew that sooner or later I bet that you'd just keep on waiting on it You'd run out of places to hide Well, I've been waiting on you, yeah, for two long years Counting on my buddy's advice Baby, you bumped into somebody who was quicker than me So my buddy's keeping you on ice Um, baby Well, I saw you at the laundromat the other day, baby Washing somebody's clothes Oh, there must be some dirty business going on 'Cause I quit smelling like a rose Well, I've been waiting on you, yeah, for two long years Counting on my buddy's advice Baby, you bumped into somebody who was quicker than me So my buddy's keeping you on ice Um, baby, come on now, kick it! Well, you might think that I've got a hole in my head Counting on my buddy so long I'm gonna get me a forty-four to set things right Just as long as I sing this song
