Stevie Wonder
Uptight (Everything’s Alright)
[Intro: (Ace Edition) + DeQuarius Slaton]
Baby, everything is all right, uptight, out of sight
Baby, everything is all right, uptight, out of sight
[Verse 1: Nikko Arnold & DeQuarius Slaton]
I'm a poor man's son, from across the railroad tracks
The only shirt I own is hanging on my back
But I'm the envy of every single guy
Since I'm the apple of my girl's eye
When we go out stepping on the town for a while
My money's low and my suit's out of style
But it's all right if my clothes aren't new
Out of sight because my heart is true
[Chorus: DeQuarius + (Ace Edition)]
She says baby everything is alright, (uptight), out of sight
Baby, everything is alright, (uptight), clean out of sight
[Verse 2: Nikko Arnold & DeQuarius Slaton]
She's a pearl of a girl, I guess that's what you might say
I guess her folks brought her up that way
The right side of the tracks, she was born and raised
In a great big old house, full of butlers and maids
She says no one is better than I, I know I'm just an average guy
No football hero or smooth Don Juan
Got empty pockets, you see I'm a poor man's son
Can't give her the things that money can't buy
But I'll never, never make my baby cry
[Chorus: DeQuarius Slaton + (Ace Edition)]
And it's all right, what I can't do
Out of sight because my heart is true
She says baby everything is alright, (uptight), clean out of sight
Baby, everything is all right, (uptight), clean out of sight
Baby, everything is all right, (uptight), hahahahaha, yeah
Baby, everything is all right, (uptight), way out of sight
Baby, everything is all right, (uptight), clean out of...
