[Chorus 1]
Ooh, well, I got a girl with a record machine
When it comes to rocking, she's a queen
Went to a dance on a Saturday night
All alone where I could hold her tight
She lives on the twentieth floor uptown
The elevator’s broken down

[Chorus 2]
So I walk one, two flight, three flight four
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag
Fifteen before I'm ready to drag
Get to the top, and I’m too tired to rock

[Verse 1]
Well, she, she called me up on the telephone
Said, "Come on over, baby, I'm all alone"
I said, "Baby, you're mighty sweet
But I'm in bed with a aching feet"
This went on for a couple of days
But I could not stay away

[Chorus 2]
So I walk one, two flight, three flight four
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag
Fifteen before I'm ready to drag
Get to the top, and I'm too tired to rock
[Verse 2]
Well, sent to Chicago for repairs
Till it's fixed I’m using the stairs
I hope they hurry, before it’s too late
You know, I love my baby too much to wait
All this climbing is getting me down
They'll find my corpse draped over the rail

[Chorus 2]
So I walk one, two flight, three flight four
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
Up on the twelfth I’m starting to sag
Fifteen before I'm ready to drag
Get to the top, and I'm too tired to rock

[Chorus 1]
Ooh, well, I got a girl with a record machine
When it comes to rocking, she's a queen
Went to a dance on a Saturday night
All alone where I could hold her tight
She lives on the twentieth floor uptown
The elevator’s broken down

[Chorus 2]
So I walk one, two flight, three flight four
Five, six, seven flight, eight flight more
Up on the twelfth I'm starting to sag
Fifteen before I'm ready to drag
Get to the top, and I'm too tired to rock
