I'm waiting for my man
Twenty six dollars in my hand
I'm waiting for my man

Outside there's a box car waiting
Outside the family stew
Out by the fire breathing
Outside we wait 'til face turns blue

I know the nervous walking
I know the dirty beard hangs
Out by the box car waiting
Take me away to nowhere, plains

There is a wait so long (so long, so long)
You'll never wait so long

Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man

Big shake on the box car moving
Big shake to the land that's falling down
Is a wind makes a palms stop blowing
A big, big stone fall and break my crown
As I wait so long (so long, so long)
You'll never wait so long

Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man

And as I wait so long (so long, so long)
You'll never wait so long

Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man
Here comes your man
